@pikesley I mean, she does double fault some… but I wouldn’t call that “winning” a point. And it’s not like she’d have to serve anywhere near max to beat (checks notes) 99.9999999% of men. Figure if she wanted to beat nine 9s of guys, she 💯 would. (A quick google says 1/8th of men are apparently familiar w/ the term “double fault”.)
Just for fun, here are some random double fault stats. Looks like Venus did it more at one point; can’t find Serena Williams’ rate for some reason.
@ruffin @pikesley So I guess in some sense, if "she was playing her best", I could just stand there and ~probably get a point or two across the entire match.
(Of course, if she was in on it and trying to stop me from getting a point, then as you note she could just dial her serve back a bit and I would almost certainly get no points. Or even return anything.)
