Jack Kennedy knows what lies ahead: a fall of playing professional events before beginning his collegiate career at the University of Virginia in the spring.
But the 18-year-old from Huntington is not ready to see his junior tennis career end just yet.

Can an American take home both the men’s and boys’ titles in the Big Apple? 🍎🎾
Jack Kennedy takes out Jack Secord in the All-American affair 6-0, 6-4
The New Yorker and UVA commit was impressive. His ball continues to get bigger off both sides. No longer content to grind guys down from the back of the court. He’s looking to take it to guys.
Striking the M3 prototype “Chroma”from Solinco very well.
The Junior US Open is heating up.
Some GOOOOOD ones on Thursday
Guto Miguel vs Jordan Lee
Jack Kennedy vs Jamie Mackenzie
Marcel Latak vs Keaton Hance
That’s a lot of popcorn
An 18-year-old from Huntington just played the main draw of the US Open. Jack Kennedy earned it with seven straight wins in Kalamazoo, and he is back Sunday to defend his junior doubles title. https://t.co/PrYMebftVH
Two @usopen stories from me today: 1, for @zootennis , Long Island’s own Jack Kennedy competed in his first main draw match, with tons of crowd support: https://t.co/KigN8zwuE7
“It’s a tough one to not get it done, but it was a dream come true and something that I’ll always remember,” said Kennedy, who became the first Long Islander to compete in the U.S. Open main draw since Noah Rubin in 2014.

Jack Kennedy said before the U.S. Open that his Grand Slam debut was going to be a dream come true.
While Sunday's first-round matchup didn���t go the 18-year-old Huntington native’s way, the significance of the moment was not lost on him. @NewsdaySports https://t.co/JpDpRR3THu

That’s the home-cooked meal Huntington‘s Jack Kennedy plans on having, courtesy of his father, the night before he wakes up and drives about 25 minutes to his first main draw U.S. Open match this Sunday. 🎾

Huntington's Jack Kennedy is back at the US Open for the third year. At 18, he's the #1 ranked US junior player and earned an automatic spot in the main draw for the first time. I asked him how different a player he is compared to last summer. @News12LI@UVAMensTennis
At 18, Long Island native Jack Kennedy is about to go from watching the US Open’s biggest stars to sharing the court with them.
