Some good points made here and it is worth noting that playing an Advantage Set (lead by 2 games) of Thirty30+ (Golden Deuce) tennis is very similar to a 3rd set deciding 10-point Super-Tie-Break and can be used as an alternative match decider to shorten matches. i.e. where every game starts from 30-30 and a sudden-death 'Golden' point is played at the first Deuce resulting in a minimum of 2 points and a maximum of 3 points played per game.

The bar chart reveals a key advantage of the Thirty30 tennis format: match duration. While a traditional tennis match typically lasts around 90 minutes, a Thirty30 match is completed in just 45 minutes. This significant reduction in time makes Thirty30 a perfect choice for players who find traditional matches too long or prefer a faster-paced game. By cutting match length by half, Thirty30 offers a time-efficient, dynamic alternative that's appealing to both players and organizers looking to fit more matches into a tight schedule. Ideal for amateurs, clubs, and even professional circuits seeking to make tennis more accessible and exciting.
