Nine-year-old Lachlan Hewatt had the experience of a lifetime when he was given the opportunity to have a hit with former world No.8 and Tennis Hot Shots Ambassador Alicia Molik at Melba Tennis Club. Hewatt was awarded the inaugural ANZ Tennis Hot Shot of the Year award during the Australian Open earlier this year. Thanks to ANZ, Hewatt was one of 12 finalists flown to Melbourne for the Australian Open 2013, and enjoyed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to go behind the scenes at Melbourne Park, have a hit on Rod Laver Arena and attend the official ANZ Tennis Hot Shot of the Year awards night. Hewatt, who attends Ngunnawal Primary School, was the first ever winner of the competition which recognised his outstanding enthusiasm, sportsmanship and effort put into the ANZTennis Hot Shots program. As part of the accolade, Lachlan was awarded a private lesson with Alicia Molik and three friends, a year's worth of coaching at his local club, and $5,000 courtesy of ANZ To get involved with ANZ Hot Shots go to: http://hotshots.tennis.com.au/
