We have some honest people around here!  :-)

All 6 voters admit to hoping for double-faults.

So far.

I love to get free points!
If its free its for me! I'll take a 6-0, 6-0 bloodletting as much as I will a 3 tiebreak sets win!
I hear ya.  Us amateur's have to take everything their giving.  The pros do too - but I've never heard a pro say that in a post match interview right there on the court just minutes after it happened.  Na Li can be very frank and I like that about her.
I don't really hope for double faults but I have thought, "I need this guy to miss some first serves"

When I am facing a second serve return it is game on! I think I am going to win the point everytime I face a second serve (usually because I am following it in) I stand close to the service line and am all confidence.

So when my opponent misses a second serve I can feel my jets start cooling off. I will take the point either way but a double doesn't necessarily give me all the momentum I am looking for.

If you convert on their second serves they will eventually try bigger serves and gift you more doubles. 1 double doesn't mean much. Converting 3 second serve chances in a row put's your opponent in a much tougher spot mentally than just double faulting once.

During the serve I am ready to play it but if it happens iam ok with it

 

when playing I don't like it to happen but when I'm watching TV I sometimes say "double fault, double fault, double fault"  and sometimes it works : )
