Teen Qualifier Shocks Wimbledon | Fayetteville News

A 16-year-old American qualifier, Jordan Lee, stunned the tennis world by winning Wimbledon’s boys’ singles title—his first Grand Slam trophy since coming back from a year-and-a-half injury layoff. He defeated 17-year-old Cruz Hewitt, son of former champ Lleyton Hewitt, in a dramatic three-set final that saw Lee claw back from a break down in the final set to win with a clutch backhand. This marks the first time a qualifier has won a Grand Slam boys’ title since 2014 and the first American to claim this crown since 2021. A true underdog triumph.
