Emilia Henningsen (DEN) and Noah Honsberger (SUI) emerged victorious at the Lexus International at Raynes Park, the only grass-court event on the Tennis Europe Junior Tour calendar. While Honsberger was making his debut on grass, Henningsen returned to Raynes Park for a second consecutive year after reaching the quarterfinals in 2025.
The Swiss player enjoyed an impressive week, defeating two seeded opponents on his way to the title. He overcame eighth seed Enzo Brito (SWE) in the opening round before upsetting fourth seed Yannis Leontis (CYP) in the quarterfinals. In the final, he faced Britain's Oskar Laskowski and took the opening set 6-4. Honsberger came close to securing victory in the second-set tiebreak, but Laskowski fought back to force a decider. The Swiss regained control in the third set, sealing a 6-4 6-7 6-1 victory.
In the girls' event, Emilia Henningsen arrived in London full of confidence after receiving an invitation to the 14 & Under event at Wimbledon later this summer. The Dane produced a series of strong performances throughout the week to reach the final, where she faced sixth seed Lyubov Pronenko. Pronenko adapted well to the grass courts as the tournament progressed, but Henningsen maintained her level to claim the title.

Organised at the AELTC Community Centre, the Category 1 event once again provided a unique experience for players from across the world. For many, it was their first opportunity to train and compete on grass courts, with some adapting quickly to the surface and others taking time to adjust to it. They also had the chance to watch some of the sport's biggest stars practising right next to them, including Grigor Dimitrov, Iga Swiatek, Jakub Mensik and Jack Draper. In addition to the trophies, the four singles finalists earned their spots to the 14 & Under invitational event at Wimbledon, where they will have the opportunity to experience a Grand Slam environment first-hand.
