Here are the matches for the terms with their corresponding definitions:

1. Love: In tennis, "love" refers to a score of zero, where no points have been won yet.

2. Tiebreaker: A tiebreaker is a method used to determine the winner of a set when the game score reaches a certain point, usually 6-6. It involves playing a shortened game where points are counted differently.

3. Deuce: Deuce occurs when both players have a score of 40-40 or when the score is tied after a tiebreaker. It signifies that one more point is needed to win the game.

4. Advantage: In tennis, advantage refers to the point scored by a player after deuce. If a player wins the next point after deuce, they gain the advantage and need one more point to win the game.

5. Backhand: A backhand is a type of tennis shot where the player hits the ball with the backside of their dominant hand (for right-handed players, this is the left hand).

6. Groundstroke: A groundstroke is a type of shot in tennis where the player hits the ball after it has already bounced on the ground. It includes forehand and backhand shots.

7. Serve: The serve is the shot used to start each point in tennis. The player throws the ball up and hits it over the net to their opponent's side.

8. Fault: A fault is called when the server fails to hit the ball into the opponent's service box or commits certain other rule violations during the serve.

9. Ace: An ace occurs when the server serves the ball in a way that it cannot be returned by the opponent. It results in the server winning the point without the opponent touching the ball.

10. Let: In tennis, a let is called when a serve lands within the correct service box but is obstructed or interfered with by external factors (e.g., net cord, ball from another court).
