In this paper, \textit{P. J. Huber}'s inequality [Ann. Math. Stat. 34, 92--94 (1963; Zbl 0114.11002)] is extended for the joint distribution function of negative dependent scores in round-robin tournaments. As a byproduct, this extension implies convergence in probability of the maximal score in round-robin tournaments in a more general setting.
