Tennis Masters Cup
The US Open champion, already through to the semi-finals, saw off Rafter and will overtake Gustavo Kuerten at the top, beconing the youngest man ever to end the year as world No. 1 since the rankings began in 1973.
The youngest player before Hewitt to finish the season as number one was American Jimmy Connors, who was 22 years and three months when he achieved the feat in 1974.
