SYDNEY (AP) — Two-time Grand Slam singles champion Lleyton Hewitt planned to come out of retirement on Wednesday to play doubles with his 16-year-old son Cruz at the New South Wales Open ATP Challenger event.
Former No. 1- ranked Hewitt, 44, won the U.S. Open in 2001 and Wimbledon in 2002. He officially retired in 2016 but has continued to play doubles in selected tournaments in Australia and is the current Davis Cup captain for Australia.
Cruz Hewitt is one of three children Hewitt has with his wife, former Australian actress Bec Hewitt.
The father-and-son Hewitts were scheduled to play Australians Hayden Jones and Pavle Marinkov in a late afternoon match at Ken Rosewall Arena in Sydney on Wednesday.
