Tennis: Russia's Kuznetsov wins boys' title at Wimbledon


Associated Press

WIMBLEDON, England — Andrey Kuznetsov of Russia won the boys' title at Wimbledon on Sunday by beating Jordan Cox of the United States 4-6, 6-2, 6-2 in the final.

"In the beginning, I was very nervous because it's a lot of crowd and this big stadium," Kuznetsov said. "But in the second set, I relax a little and I began to play better, then just used my chances."

Noppawan Lertcheewakarn of Thailand won the girls' title Saturday, defeating top-seeded Kristina Mladenovic of France 3-6, 6-3, 6-1.
