Wimbledon is going on these days so I will list some words I hear during this time.

 

Oyun = game

Set = set

Maç = match

Servis atmak = to serve

Ters el = backhand

Düz el = forehand

Basit hata = unforced error

Çift hata = double fault

Bitirici (vuruş ) = winner

Dip/geri çizgi = baseline

Geçiş = passing shot

Berabere/eşitlik = deuce

Kırk sıfır = forty love

Sıfır kırk = love forty

Sıfır oyunu = love game

Kırma sayısı = break point

Kırıntı = mini break

Eşitlik bozma = tiebreak

Avantaj Radwanska = advantage Radwanska

Haydi Rafa = vamos Rafa

Are you sure about "kırıntı" ?  I would call it " Küçük ara "

OK. That´s what I call it. I forgot to tell it´s my invention only. Never mind about it. But others should be OK.
