What is an Advantage in Padel?
Advantage is the score one point past deuce in traditional padel scoring. The team at advantage needs the next point to win the game; if they lose it, the score goes back to deuce.
Example in a match
You win the point at deuce. You're now at advantage. Win the next and you take the game; lose it and you're back at deuce.
