Let’s discover the journey of Kévin (known under the pseudonym “Kev Tatz” on social networks), a content creator dedicated to padel and tennis. Kévin shares with us his experience, his immersion in the world of padel, and reveals his ambitions as a player and content creator. 

His love for padel

“I discovered padel about five years ago during a training course that included a padel camp. At the time, I wasn’t very interested in it, because my region lacked padel courts. However, everything changed when I moved to Toulouse: that’s where I really started playing. I even played my very first tournament game! Since that first tournament, I’ve never stopped playing, and I’m now ranked 1191st in France this month.”

“I am convinced that in the long run, padel will surpass tennis in popularity, especially due to its easy access and fun side. My videos reflect this conviction: I mainly focus on padel, although from time to time I also cover tennis tournaments.”

YouTube channel launch

“Three months after I started playing padel, I launched my Youtube channel. I realized that I spent a lot of time on the courts, I often participated in tournaments and I was looking for partners. I always wanted to create content on a subject that I was passionate about, and padel was an obvious choice. It was the perfect opportunity to share my passion and experiences, and thus help other enthusiasts and players discover this sport.

I had the chance to meet a lot of high level players. Even though I haven't made videos with all of them, I interacted with them during several tournaments, notably during the French Championships and the P2000. These meetings allowed me to learn more about the world of competition.”

His favorite video

“If I had to keep only one of my videos, it would be the one with Bastien Blanqué. Bastien was the first to trust me with a project.”

Its objectives for 2024

“In 2024, my main goal is to catch up with other content creators who have recently started playing padel on YouTube. I want to produce quality videos to grow my channel. I was among the first with Julien Seurin to create content exclusively on padel, and now I want to stand out by offering unique videos. I also aim to continue to highlight the new generation that is arriving in padel, in particular this year there will be several videos with young people on my channel.

My goal as a player is to get into the top 1 as soon as possible. Last year I was slowed down by an ankle injury, but now I'm determined to make up for lost time! And on my channel I want to show padel through immersive reports.”
