Lleyton Hewitt's son follows in his footsteps

Cruz is just like his dad!
  • 07 Nov 2019

Lleyton Hewitt's lookalike son, Cruz, has proved he's a chip off the old block. 

WATCH: Lleyton Hewitt's Son Cruz Hewitt Shows Off MIGHTY Tennis Skills

The tennis legend's 10-year-old son won another tennis trophy at the weekend, winning a tournament at the MCC Glen Iris Valley Tennis Club.

The youngster, who won his first tournament in April, posed proudly with his dad as he excitedly clutched his trophy and wore a grin from ear to ear.

"Good day at the office! 🏆Thx @lleytonhewitt89 @bechewitt23 @peterluczak94 @kathrynoyeniyi #GlenIris #TeamCruz" the young tennis ace captioned his photo on Instagram. 

Proud dad Lleyton also shared the snap, and praised his son for his hard work and determination. 

"Not sure I could’ve played 6 matches in 1 day. Great job mate! @cruzhewitt 👊🏻 #TeamCruz" he wrote in his caption.

Earlier this year, Lleyton Hewitt took his mini-me son Cruz to Wimbledon.

Lleyton was at the tennis tournament to play in the men's doubles, and it looks like he took his tennis playing son along to watch him play - and maybe get a few tips for his own game!

Posting a photo of the pair to his Instagram, Lleyton, who won the prestigious tournament in 2002, captioned the pic: "Changing of the guards... 🇬🇧 @cruzhewitt#Wimbledon #SW19"

Lleyton, 38, and Cruz were both dressed in tennis whites - the traditional Wimbledon dress code, which dates back to 1877.

Cruz looked like he had a fun day out with his dad, and posted pics from the day to his own social media account, including one snap of him smiling from the umpire's chair.
