I struggle with the scoring

why not one nil, two nil, three nil etc instead of 15 30 40 etc what on earth is all that about? and how is zero love? and why do they let people have two goes at serving the ball up? if you can't master serving at the first attempt then you aren't by definition very good at it. and then it's played on a variety of surfaces and the women all grunt like pigs and cliff richards and the royals are always there freeloading its really just a big old fanny of a sport.
