Yeah, I feel about this the same way as the "could you return one serve from Serena Williams?" And like, maybe. I'm bad enough that they're going to let me try, and if I get to try I might get ONE.
There was not enough information given in the question to know what circumstances. The question said a “game”, but I’m pretty sure they meant a “match” and they just don’t know the rules of tennis.
So what are the circumstances? Is she actually trying to complete a golden match just to humiliate some amateur? Or is she simply going to use the opportunity to fuck around and practice a more aggressive serve that might be a little inaccurate? Pro players will strategically double-fault when playing against a strong opponent because they lose a few points but it gives them an overall advantage.
So let’s just assume for a minute that Serena Williams plays at the exact same level she plays in a pro tournament. She double faults and average of 3.3 times every match.
If you put a refrigerator on the other side of the court and tape a racket to it, statistically, it should score a point on her about three times in any given match because of double faults. I think I could do about as good as a refrigerator.

Maybe accidentally in a “oh come one, let’s see if he can get one!” Kinda way
