Definition from
Wikipedia:
Tajbrejk (z angl. tiebreak) je skrátená hra v tenise. Hrá sa za stavu 6:6. Na podaní je hráč, ktorý mal túto výhodu v predošlej hre (t.j. za stavu 6:5, resp. 5:6) a má k dispozícii jedno podanie. Ďalej sa pokračuje po dvoch podaniach. Víťazom je ten hráč, ktorý sa svojmu súperovi vzdiali na viac ako 2 body a zároveň dosiahne 7 bodov.
Example sentences:
