Fascinated with how this is presented; the blind self confidence, the expectation that people should perform happiness because it is aesthetically pleasing, and OP getting sniped by a tennis ball because Serena Williams is so professionally competent that it defies the laws of physics and biology

I believe this one was born when it was revealed most men answered they believed they could score one time in a tennis match against serena on a survey

If Serena Williams showed up with zero experience to compete against me in sport I played regularly, I still don't think I would score against her.

Unless its chess (still don't understand why thats counted as a sport), and scoring is defined as taking a piece. That I think I could do vs serena williams.

You were so preoccupied by the moment of taking that first piece you didn't see her serving the tennis ball, killing you instantly.

Nice try, chump

Ah yes, the infamous tennis ball gambit, how could I have been so foolish.

u/Stunning_Box8782 Sep 16 '26

I was using hyperbole to highlight the absurdity of any non professional thinking they're going to score against her in a tennis match.

Especially since Serena is one of the greatest athletes of all time regardless of sport or gender.
