Kitchen Banter Podcast ep10: From D1 Tennis to Dominating Pickleball | Ganon the Cannon

In this episode of Kitchen Banter, Tony and Daniel sit down with Ganon “The Cannon,” Ocala’s newest left-handed pickleball standout, to talk about his journey from elite junior tennis in California to becoming a rising force on the local courts. Ganon shares how he and his wife ended up in Ocala, the grind of competitive tennis, what pulled him into pickleball, and how the Ocala community helped him find his place fast. They dive into doubles strategy (including the chaos of two lefties), tournament stories, Duper ratings, challenge courts, managing marriage with a heavy pickleball schedule, and how adults in their 30s actually make friends through the sport. If you love pickleball culture, strategy, tournaments, and real conversations about the lifestyle around the game, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
