Balgarianovinite.com Ivan Ivanov made history as junior boys 2025 ITF World Champion, becoming the first Bulgarian player to win an International Tennis Federation World Champion award in any category, the ITF announced on its website on Wednesday.
Ivanov won the boys’ singles titles at both Wimbledon and the US Open, becoming the first player to win multiple Grand Slam boys’ singles titles in a season since Tseng Chun-Hsin in 2018. He became just the 2nd Bulgarian player to win a Grand Slam boys’ singles title after Grigor Dimitrov.
At junior-level Ivanov also won the title at J300 in France and finished runner-up at J500 Milan, Italy. He won his first professional title on the ITF World Tennis Tour in May and made his Davis Cup debut during Bulgaria’s victory over Finland in September.
USA’s Kristina Penickova is the junior girls World Champion.
Aryna Sabalenka and Jannik Sinner are the 2025 ITF World Champions in women’s and men’s singles respectively. Both Sabalenka and Sinner receive the prestigious award for the second time.
The prestigious annual awards recognize 11 players in various categories. The 2025 World Champions will receive their awards at a ceremony in 2026.
ITF President David Haggerty congratulated all 2025 ITF World Champions. “It has been another incredible year for tennis, with so many highlights across the Grand Slam tournaments, the tours and our team events. The 11 players we are recognising today have all enjoyed tremendous seasons and we are confident that they will continue to shine in 2026. We wish these and all players a restful off-season and good fortune for next year,” he is quoted as saying on the ITF website.
