    This is just wrong. The match has not been won or lost, it was not match point. It's the beginning of the tie break, and this point is a foul. But they are both finally playing great tennis, and that is what gives Tashi life.

      I think your 100% right. I believe the ending scene is a mirror of the threesome kissing scene. Tashi is in complete control and watches as she manipulates them into having a "relationship" sexually (kissing) and in tennis. I believe she is aware and has planned the majority of what ends up taking place in the end even though she didn't know the secret code she knew patrick would tell out of his own arrogance or friendship or whatever would drive him

    my interpretation of the movie: art is ego, pat is passion, tashi is discipline. The characters are placeholders for these qualities and how they interact, their relationships and careers reflect these qualities. pat was the better player of the two when they were younger showing passion is a strong source of motivation and progression to oneself but art always wanted to win, pat just loved to play. This leds them down different paths when tashi is introduced. Tashi is discipline(damn near obssession), art and pat saw her life and who she was and were envious, they wanted her and fought for her, passion won. Pat went on tour and that distanced him from tashi and art, his discipline and desire to win(ego), this led to their break up because she simply "didnt want to be with a tennis player that sucks" (her words not mine). When they broke up, coincidentally she had her career ending injury immediately after, when discipline loses passion it needs new purpose. Art comforts tashi as your ego should. tashi decides to become his coach, and he gets to become a successful well known tennis player, and she gets to live through his tennis career, Pat became a bum. Art begins losing and loses his will to play but is afraid of losing tashi if he retires. Ego is afraid of letting go of something that encompasses a very large part of itself. Art worked so hard to get to this point and is afraid of letting it go because its such a big part of who he is. Before Pat and Art's match, tashi and pat meet and do cool stuff. passion finds discipline again and his drive to win. The game is even, showing that passion and ego can be equal motivators to ones purpose. As the match reaches the end both players had submitted to each other, pat submitting to his desire to win and art overcoming his fear of loss in pursuit of enjoying the match. this final match they finally all 3 come together for a moment when they are aligned. Much like a player in any sport, a moment when your drive to win, your passion for the sport, and your training and hardwork are aligned is best described by tashis monologue. So it wasnt important who won only that we got to see them play and how each of them brought out what the other was missing. //feel free to tear this apart I just felt this had good continuity and these experiences are pretty relatable to most//

    Tennis was always about the relationship. At the very end it didn’t matter who won the match, all that mattered was the relationship between Patrick and Art had reignited again after all those years trying to win over Tashi (and she also wins because real tennis was finally played between the two, thats all she wanted)

    I think Art and Patrick hugging it out and essentially zoning Tashi out for the final volley is them actively striking out against her and deciding that they’re going to play because of their love for the game and their rivalry (or love for each other, but I know that some people aren’t going to like that).
    I don’t really think Tashi won in the end since she’d just realized that her connection to her family was more important to her than tennis (which is shown when she finds Art and the kid sleeping after she did the thing with Patrick), but she’s basically seeing that crumble away in front of her.
    I think it ends on an intentionally ambiguous note and kinda plays out like Art and Patrick don’t want to finish out the game because they can finally set aside their differences and get back into loving the game. Meanwhile Tashi is furious that such good Tennis is being interrupted by human connection, but then her true feelings shine through in the end (or if you view her as the antagonist and she just wants to see peak tennis, then you interpret her going from pissed to cheering is her trying to blend in with everyone else)
