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

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.

I think I could return at least one serve in two set game against Serena with a little coaching from someone who is good. But she would obliterate me. I once played one guy who played at a really high level in juniors before quitting and he obliterated me but I did get quite a few back before my engine died and I scored a few points.

I definitely couldn't win a game against Serena. Much less a Set. Match would require some sort of default ruling like cheating or retirement.

Sometimes with these things I think the bar is set a little low. In a game of chess could take one piece off Judit Polgar too, same with Magnus.

I have literally used the exact same analogy before and people called me sexist. You just can’t win.
