I would score several points. I have a deadly backhand lobs and great drop shots right over the net.

Interesting story about the Williams sisters vs men




Not really about the Williams sisters vs men, it’s about the Williams sisters vs a RANKED male professional tennis player.

The OP’s original question asked if anyone *here* could score a point on her, and the answer remains no.. like i said, i’ve only been playing for 4 or 5 yrs, i’m pretty decent but Serena would embarrass me.. if she were trying, i wouldnt be able to score a single point..but i’m probably only ranked like #1,465,817 in the world.

Another event dubbed a "Battle of the Sexes" took place during the 1998 Australian Open[56] between Karsten Braasch and the Williams sisters. Venus and Serena Williams had claimed that they could beat any male player ranked outside the world's top 200, so Braasch, then ranked 203rd, challenged them both. Braasch was described by one journalist as "a man whose training regime centered around a pack of cigarettes and more than a couple of bottles of ice cold lager".[57][56] The matches took place on court number 12 in Melbourne Park,[58] after Braasch had finished a round of golf and two shandies. He first took on Serena and after leading 5–0, beat her 6–1. Venus then walked on court and again Braasch was victorious, this time winning 6–2.[56] Braasch said afterwards, "500 and above, no chance". He added that he had played like someone ranked 600th in order to keep the game "fun"

No. Haven't touched a racquet since the 90's. Wasn't good then.

Is it really an argument when the Williams sister a has to be compared to the beer drinking joe?

Lol. All but conceded any professional man would whip hers and any others woman’s arse. Just like any sport.

And yes. Rousey still hits like a girl.

all I got to do is get one serve that she doesn’t return in play? Yes, I can do that. Could I beat her in a set? Hell no!


You don’t serve fast enough for her not to return.

You aren’t even approaching 70 mph.

I would bet a lot of money on myself to record a point against Serena without any caveats. I would do so for most dudes who hve played tennis at least recreationally and aren't handicapped or otherwise incapacitated.

I used to play against my girlfriend, who was captain of her HS team and one of the best in the league, and she never won more than one game in a set. My experience is country club frickery.

No I'm not comparing a good HS girl to an elite female tennis player. Just saying it doesn't take much to get a singular point and any guy hwo has been on the court could stay in it long enough to make it happen one way or another.

Keep practicing. You’ll break the 1,460,000’s eventually.

What NTRP level are you?

Nope. I was 3.5. Play a 5 woman and couldn't even get a point unless it was an unforced error.

It takes 4 points to win a game and six games to win a set. She would have to win 48 consecutive volleys (I'm assuming 2 sets to win the match.)

She would beat me 6-0, 6-0. But I would expect to score a point somewhere just on dumb luck.

No.

I’m a male with better than ‘slight’ athleticism, I’ve played tennis for more than a year- and she would absolutely wipe the court with me... just as with she would with anyone similar to me.


Most guys on here will "boast" about not being able to deal with one of Allie Walljasper's fastballs even after watching a little 5'2" pussy fart go yard on her.

You just know women find that sexy, don't you?

That you think this is applicable is hilarious.

Serena serves over 120 mph. Your high school girlfriend wasn’t even hitting batting practice speed. Lol

My 19yr old me could win a game each set.

Id win some of my service games.

I actually had a complete game.
Fabulous net game and fit as could be.

When 18, a friend and i got beat on the reg in the heat of summer by the mcneese doubles team, at the time ranked #1 in naia.
A pair of Mexicans.

19 me could win a few points on her.
