3 doubles matches first (1 set to 6, 7-point tiebreaker at 6-6) — winning team gets 1 doubles point; 6 singles matches (best of 3 sets, no-ad scoring, 7-point tiebreaker at 6-6 in sets 1-2; super tiebreaker at 1-1 in sets in some formats); Total: 7 points possible per dual (1 doubles + 6 singles)...
Why people argue about this
People often assume that in NCAA doubles matches, each team plays 3 sets against their opponent, which is incorrect. Actually, they play a best-of-3 sets format with no-ad scoring, meaning the first player to reach 10 points wins each set regardless of the score difference between them and their opponents. This can lead to confusion about how many games are played in total for doubles matches.
