Where did the term Love come from in the game of Tennis?

Answers:

A lot of tennis fans question serena quest to return to the top pf the tennis world well what do you have to s

I remember that that term "love" was a pronounciation issue, when the french were saying "l'Oeuf" which means the egg, because a zero is shaped like an egg.
the english pronounced it leuve, then it becames love.

the same way the words Tennis...comes from the expression tenez...(the old french tennis players used to say "tenez" while serving.
