India's 14-year-old Siddhant Banthia booked his ticket to the 2015 junior Wimbledon after he won the HSBC Road to Wimbledon Boys' Singles Championship.

The organisers announced on Monday that the Pune boy had defeated top seed Maxime Tremikhin 7-6(2), 2-6, 6-0 in the singles final held at Wimbledon, Saturday.

Siddhant played near perfect tennis beating the top seed thrice on his way to the title.
