Serve It Up

Keaton Hance, a top 10 ITF junior tennis player in the world, reveals what it takes to win at tennis when the stakes are highest, tracing his path from a tennis-obsessed childhood in Torrance to the pressure of the US Open Boys' Doubles final. Keaton shares the details most fans never get to hear, including his training schedule at Farm & Forge in Nashville, the nutrition patterns that fuel him on court, and the lessons his parents drilled into him early on: respect, composure, and playing the ball, not the emotion. He explains why junior players need to stop overthinking, start loving the process, and build a relationship with their sport that lasts longer than any single match. This episode delivers a rare inside look at what it feels like to chase a Grand Slam dream from the inside.
