In episode 29 of Nic and Jet Fuel, Jayme Nabors and Bobby Nabors sit down with tennis legend Roscoe Tanner — known worldwide as “The Rocket.”

Tanner made history with a 153 MPH serve, held the record for over 50 years, and won the Australian Open. He faced off against icons like Arthur Ashe and Björn Borg, and his story is one of unbelievable highs… and powerful redemption.

From the world’s fastest serve to personal setbacks and spiritual renewal, Roscoe shares how faith, humility, and purpose reshaped his life.
This isn’t just a tennis story — it’s a story about grace, second chances, and finding peace after the spotlight fades.
