What is a Tiebreak?
In tennis, a tiebreak is played to determine the winner between two players when a set is tied at 6-6 in games. Once the set reaches a tiebreak situation, the players engage in a tiebreak game, which consists of a series of points. The first player to score seven points and have a margin of at least two points wins the tiebreak and the set.
If the players are tied at 6-6 in points in the tiebreak, the first player to achieve a two-point lead wins. The tiebreak rules used in the Asian Games are similar to the classic tiebreak format, where the key difference is that the player who reaches 10 points with a two-point margin wins. If the score reaches 10-10, the tiebreak continues until one player gains a two-point advantage.
