Overview

The 2024 ITF World Tennis Tour Junior Finals will take place at the Sichuan International Tennis Center, Chengdu, China on 14-20 October 2024. 

The event showcases the best 8 boys and best 8 girls from the past twelve months on the ITF World Tennis Tour Juniors. The World Tennis Tour Junior Finals Qualification rankings run from 11th September 2023 - 8th September 2024. 

In partnership with the Chinese Tennis Association, Chengdu Sports Bureau, and Chengdu Shuangliu District Bureau of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the event returned to Chengdu in 2023 following successful events that took place between 2015 – 2019.

Alina Korneeva and Joel Schwaerzler were crowned girls' and boys' champions in 2023.

All players on show in Chengdu receive travel grants to support their future progression to professional tennis. Last year's champions Korneeva and Schwaerzler received $17,000 USD in travel grants, with the grants staggered so those in eighth position received $6,000.

Grand Slam champions Marketa Vondrousova, Elena Rybakina, Sofia Kenin and Jelena Ostapenko have all competed at past ITF Junior Finals, as have Casper Ruud, Holger Rune, Andrey Rublev, Taylor Fritz, Leylah Fernandez, Lorenzo Musetti and Marta Kostyuk.
