In total, he won 30 singles titles and 3 doubles titles, including the 2000 US Open men’s doubles title, back-to-back Tour Finals titles in 2001 and 2002, and the Davis Cup with Australia in 1999 and 2003. Between 1997 and 2016, Hewitt contested a record twenty consecutive Australian Open men’s singles tournaments, his best result being runner-up in 2005. He was also the runner-up at the 2004 US Open.
Lleyton Hewitt personally signed these shorts. They have some small marks on them, so we think he may have worn them. We are unsure exactly what time period these are from; we suspect the early 2000s.
