Lui Maxted claims NCAA Doubles Championship title

• 1 MINUTE READ

Britain’s Lui Maxted won the NCAA Doubles Championship at the Hurd Tennis Center in Baylor this weekend, alongside Spanish partner Pedro Vives.

The NCAA Tennis Championships is an annual tournament held for the top players in collegiate tennis.

Maxted and Vives get their hands on the title after defeating Michigan's Gavin Young and Benjamin Kittay, 6-3, 6-7(6), 10-2 in the final.

A title run in their first event together since 2021 could see them named No.1 ranked doubles team in the nation once the rankings are updated.

Brighton-native Maxted is only the third British player to win the title after Dominic Inglot (2009) and Lloyd Glasspool (2015).

The British, Spanish duo became the first doubles pair from Texas Christian University (TCU) to lift the trophy since 1981.

Past doubles champions include John Isner, Kevin Anderson and former doubles world No.1s Mike and Bob Bryan, Rajeev Ram and Austin Krajicek.

Maxted is now a four-time national champion with TCU, having been part of the teams that won the 2022 and 2023 ITA Indoor National Championships and the college’s first NCAA Team Championship earlier this year.

He is one of several Brits to have played at TCU – including Cam Norrie, Jacob Fearnley, Jack Pinnington Jones and Alastair Gray.

The 20-year-old Brit was supported by the LTA Men’s & Women’s Programme and has been attending TCU since he was 17, where LTA's National men's coach Mark Hilton oversees a long-standing relationship with the college.
