12% Of Men Think They Can Win a Point Off Her

In 2019, YouGov asked 1,732 British adults if they could win a point off Serena Williams. 12% of men said yes, and the internet laughed for a week. Jannik Sinner lost to an amateur in January. Karsten Braasch beat Venus and Serena Williams back to back in 1998 while barely trying. Brian Scalabrine played four challengers and won 44-6. So could you win a point off a pro? This video looks at what happens when regular people play professionals, from the Scallenge to Jennie Finch striking out Albert Pujols, and why tennis is the only sport where the answer isn’t an instant no. Then we test it: the Australian Open 1 Point Slam, where Jordan Smith beat Sinner and Amanda Anisimova for a million dollars, the Braasch match, the maths of winning a game from one point in ten, and a 20,000 set simulation built from ATP and WTA double fault rates. How many points would you win? Be honest. Want To Help Support The Channel?:    / @a.c.e.v.x
