English term or phrase: tie-break
Definition from NBC Universal:
(also: tiebreaker) – Employed when a set becomes tied at 6 games. A tie-break is generally played to seven points, but because it too must be won by at least two points, it may be extended.

Example sentence(s):
  • The popular American battled throughout the grueling match but stressed that the second-set tie-break had weighed heavily on his mind. ClubCall.com
  • The result went Hrbaty's way as he claimed the set, match and title 7-3 in the tie-break to end a remarkable match, at a Cup which featured the best tennis imaginable. Hyundai Hopman Cup
  • Nadal had stood on the brink of victory after taking the advantage in the fourth set tie-break and holding two points for the title, the second of which Federer saved with a simply sensational backhand winner. 365 Media Group plc

tie-break (zkrácená hra)


Definition from Wikipedia:
Tiebreak [tajbrejk] (angl.) neboli zkrácená hra je hra na konci setu tenisového zápasu, pokud oba hráči (obě strany ve čtyřhře) dosáhnou šesti her (bodů), tedy za stavu 6-6.

Example sentence(s):
  • Zatím svůj poslední turnajový vavřín získal v německém Mnichově v roce 2009, kde čtyři utkání po sobě musel vyhrát ve třech sadách a ve třech z nich až ve třetím setu v tie-breaku. - Osobnosti.cz  
  • O postupujícím se rozhodovalo až v tie-breaku třetího setu a v něm, přestože už prohrával 1:5, uspěl Francouz. - Profitenis.cz  
  • Skvělý tenis pokračoval i ve třetí sadě. Česká daviscupová jednička v jeho průběhu nevyužila pět brejkbolů, ale Davyděnkovi stejně jako ve druhé sadě nepovolila ani jediný, takže rozhodovala zkrácená hra. V ní se Berdych díky skvělým úderům dostal do vedení 6:2, ze série čtyř setbolů proměnil ten poslední. - Tyden.cz
