The game's French origins also account for some of its unique terminology. "Love," for instance, representing a zero score, is thought to have derived from l'oeuf, which is French for "egg," while "deuce," similar to the French word for "two," refers to the situation in which two consecutive points are required to win a game. Nowadays, tennis has evolved into a highly charged, tense encounter between dedicated professionals who more than likely acquired their hunger for success at a very tender age. The degree of commitment required to reach the heights is matched only by the tremendous financial rewards to those who make it into the top rankings.

网球的法国血统也可以解释现今一些专用术语的由来。例如“Love”(零分)一般以为源于法文的“l’oeuf”,意即“蛋”;“deuce”(丢士),表示比赛中一方需要连赢两点才能拿下该局的情况,与法文deuce的原意“二”相近。时至今日,网球已俨然成为一种斗志高昂、对峙紧张的职业运动。参赛者虽然年纪尚未稚嫩,但是都能够表现出强烈的获胜心。他们必须争取世界顶尖排名、赢取巨额奖金,才能在职业网球事业上勇攀顶峰。
