Tennis scoring has its origin in medieval numerology. The number 60 was considered to be a "good" or "complete" number back then, in about the same way you'd consider 100 to be a nice round figure today. The medieval version of tennis, therefore, was based on 60 -- the four points when 15, 30, 45 (which we abbreviate to 40) and 60, or game.

Andy should have won it in 4.
He choked on the 2nd set tie-break.

He's been good, but at the same time, if he loses, he cost himself the match in the 2nd set tiebreak.

why would you abbreviate it to 40, what kinda sense does that make.
1, 2, 3 and 6 scoring in football makes alot more sense than 15, 30, 40 game
