Cruz Hewitt reaches Wimbledon boys' final 24 years after father's title
Cruz Hewitt will face Jordan Lee in the Wimbledon boys' singles final on Sunday.
Cruz Hewitt advanced to the Wimbledon boys’ singles final and will face Jordan Lee on Sunday, the International Tennis Federation announced.
The ITF highlighted that Cruz is “carving his own path” on the same grass where his father, Lleyton Hewitt, won the gentlemen’s singles title in 2002 — 24 years ago. The father-son connection adds a notable family storyline to the junior final, though the federation’s framing emphasizes the younger Hewitt’s individual trajectory rather than legacy alone.
The championship match against Lee is scheduled for Sunday.
