Reply to comment by TheForeverKing in Tennis umpire handed lifetime ban for manipulating scoring by PrincessBananas85

I’m just replying to the idea that there are too many points in a match for an umpire to make a difference with a few calls. They easily could.

I didn't say that. I said they are worth less because there are so many. In football for example the difference between 1-1 or 1-2 is huge, and decided by only one call. There are hundreds of points in a tennis match and thus, manipulating just a handful has a much smaller impact overall.
