Tennis: Tennis legend Rafael Nadal has released a farewell video after announcing his retirement.
Nadal releases tennis farewell video | 01:01 Lleyton Hewitt says his son Cruz’s development is “pretty exciting” as the 15-year-old prepares for another crack at the Australian Open junior championship in January.
Cruz won two consecutive junior ITF titles in August and also claimed his first senior victory later that month when he beat a Dutch player seven years his senior, Thijmen Loof, at an ITF event in Bali. Cruz Hewitt, 15, is on track for a second appearance in the Australian Open junior singles draw next year. Picture: Mark Stewart“Most likely he’ll be playing in the juniors, which is pretty awesome for him again,” Lleyton said on Thursday.“And I think it’s every kid’s dream to play in a grand slam, but we’re very fortunate being in this country that we get it in our backyard as well. He’s obviously seen a lot of these players before him that have played, so it’s pretty exciting.
“I don’t think he focuses on it too much – he’s like most kids these days, they just go about their thing,” Lleyton said.
