Given that Tommy played 10 games and earned a total of 25 points with 9 draws and 0 losses, we can determine how many games he won.

From the information provided:
- Each draw earns him 3 points.
- He had 9 draws.

First, let's calculate the points he earned from the draws:

\[
\text{Points from draws} = \text{Number of draws} \times \text{Points per draw} = 9 \text{ draws} \times 3 \text{ points/draw} = 27 \text{ points}
\]

However, Tommy only has a total of 25 points. This suggests an inconsistency, as earning 27 points from 9 draws means it would require him to have lost any matches to stay within 10 total games.

Since earning 27 points from 9 draws exceeds his actual score of 25 points, he cannot have 9 draws while maintaining a total of 25 points unless he would have lost or not played.

To solve the equation considering the games played:
1. He has 10 total games; if he had 9 draws, that would leave him only 1 game.
2. Since there are no wins (as per the statement), the remaining game must have been a loss:

\[
10 \text{ games} - 9 \text{ draws} = 1 \text{ game (which must be a loss)}
\]

Thus:
He lost **1 game**.

Final feedback based on the information established is that Tommy lost **1 game**.
