But reading in Wicki just then, it says Slovenian alder trees were bought in. :-\

Just noticed Rhun's answer, Memphis your illness has affected your brain !
One. For the match to start, and for it to count as a win, it must have at least on shot played? Then the opposition can withdraw through injury...
Must be some sort of trick question like that.
Good shout mate ! Was just about to say that myself :-XQuote:

New question? ;D
No tricks guys, each game is played properly. You are of course assuming its a singles match. I straight away said 36 when I got asked this.Quote:

Doubles games would have to be 18 ?Quote:

Your service games are won to love so 4 shots a piece.
I dont think you can win 3 sets on the bounce only having one service game in each so I dont reckon 12 is right, I think you've got to serve twice in the middle set making it 16.
Now that was all very straight forward wasnt it ;D

16 is right if your partner serves before you in the 1st set out of the pairing, cos you would only serve once in 1st set, twice in 2nd set, and once in 3rd set, serving 4 games in total, your partner would serve 5 games in total.
Correct.Quote:
