Despite a premature declaration by the ITF this week that Donald Young was the youngest ever ITF Junior World Champion, the race is not over. In a corrected statement, it was acknowledged that Marin Cilic is just a few points away. The number one for the boys will not be decided until after next week's Yucatan Cup. The top girls player in the world is easier, however, Viktoria Azarenka is so far ahead that she is guaranteed the spot.
