Hong Kong's Coleman Wong has won his second junior doubles Grand Slam tennis title, breaking HK's record.
The 17-year-old teamed up with American Bruno Kuzuhara to beat Alex Michelson and Adolfo Daneil Vallejo 6-4, 7-6 in the final of the Australian Open.
Having cruised through the opening set, Wong and Kuzuhara looked set for an easy victory at 5-3 ahead in the second. But they then lost three straight games before Kuzuhara managed to hold his serve in the crucial 12th game to send the set into a tiebreaker.
He and Wong capitalized on the swing in momentum to close out the match with ease as the Hong Kong star added the Australian Open title to the junior US Open crown he won last year.
