A native of Dublin, Farron-Mahon relocated to Florida as a child for training and became a top-50 player on the ITF junior circuit. [1] [2] During his junior career he partnered with Marin Čilić in doubles at Wimbledon and the pair won a title together in Roehampton. [3] He was named a National Junior Sports Star by the Irish Examiner for 2005. [4] Due to having a Swiss grandfather, there was purportedly some interest by Switzerland to have him switch allegiances. [5]

Farron-Mahon, who won three ITF Futures doubles titles, made a Davis Cup appearance for Ireland against Finland in Helsinki in 2006. He partnered Kevin Sorensen for the doubles rubber, which they lost to Tuomas Ketola and Jarkko Nieminen. In a professional career hampered by injury he attained best rankings of 870 in singles and 501 in doubles. [6]
