Match is the whole thing. You win the match, you move on.
A match consists of the best of five sets.
In a normal set, if you get to 6-6, you play a tiebreaker, which is just scored 1-2-3, and so on, rather than 15-30-40. A tiebreaker is the first person who gets to 7 and wins by two points.
In Wimbledon, there is no tiebreaker in the last set, so they've been trading 15-30-40 games for the last, oh, five hours. First person who gets up by two games wins.
McChrystal is completely entitled to his opinion. He is not, however, entitled to his job. From what I can tell, his right to have an opinion has not been impacted in any way whatsoever.
I know, I just made tennis sound insane.
How are their arms still attached?!
Are there live visuals anywhere? I would love to see what these poor guys actually look like at this point.
Although I am imagining them as zombies, I guess.
Whew! Score's 2-2. That must be relaxing for them. Breath of fresh air.
I know next to nothing about tennis, but The Guardian's liveblogger is my new favorite person.
Genius! Steal the rackets from the zombie tennis players. It's their only hope.
Wimbledon: not-so-sudden death
Thanks, Tom! We seem not to get that, though. Damn.
