Earlier this year, Lleyton Hewitt took his mini-me son Cruz to Wimbledon.

Lleyton was at the tennis tournament to play in the men’s doubles, and it looks like he took his tennis playing son along to watch him play – and maybe get a few tips for his own game!

Lleyton, 38, and Cruz were both dressed in tennis whites – the traditional Wimbledon dress code, which dates back to 1877.
