October 25, 2026
Jordan Lee (16; Orlando, Fla.) won the boys’ title at the 2026 World Tennis Tour Junior Finals in Chengdu, China, defeating Slovenia’s Ziga Sesko 6-3, 7-5. He is the first American boy to win the event since Brandon Nakashima in 2018.
Lee, who trains at the USTA National Campus and is the reigning Wimbledon boys’ champion, earned 1,000 junior ranking points (matching a junior Grand Slam) and took home $21,250 in travel grants from the event’s $220,000 pool. The 1,000 points will elevate him to No. 2 in the World Tennis Tour junior rankings on Monday, helping secure entry into professional tournaments in 2027 through World Tennis’ Junior Accelerator Programme.
Two other top American juniors also competed in Chengdu, with 18-year-old Keaton Hance (Torrance, Calif.) finishing fourth in the boys’ competition and 16-year-old Janae Preston (Henderson, Nev.) placing fifth in the girls’ competition.
