Indian tennis prodigy Srishti Kiran has climbed to the top of the global Under-13 rankings after winning five consecutive ITF junior titles and finishing runner-up at the ITF World Tennis Tour Juniors J100 Guatemala.
The 13-year-old from Bengaluru now holds a career-high ITF junior ranking of No. 357, the highest worldwide among U-13 players, despite participating in only eight ranking events—two fewer than the maximum counted for rankings.
Srishti said that winning five titles in a row and reaching another final has given her immense confidence as she prepares for Europe’s grass-court season.
She is set to compete in the J300 UK event, a lead-up to the prestigious Wimbledon Junior Championships, marking a new milestone in her journey.
Her rise underscores India’s growing presence in global junior tennis and highlights the potential of young athletes overcoming resource challenges to achieve international success.
