Hewitt might well have followed in the footsteps of his Australian rules football-playing father Glynn. Instead, he became one of the youngest winners of an Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) tournament when, as an almost unknown youngster, he won the 1998 Next Generation Adelaide International, defeating Andre Agassi in the semifinals. Only Aaron Krickstein winning Tel Aviv in 1983 and Michael Chang winning San Francisco in 1988 were younger when claiming their first ATP title. Hewitt then left Immanuel College to concentrate on his tennis career

In 2000, Hewitt reached his first Grand Slam final at the Wimbledon mixed doubles partnering Belgian Kim Clijsters. They lost the match 6–4, 7–6 to Americans Kimberly Po and Donald Johnson. Hewitt would later win his first Grand Slam title at the US Open when he along with Max Mirnyi claimed the men's doubles championship; thus becoming the youngest male (at 19 years, 6 months) to win a slam doubles crown in the Open Era.[5] At the end of the year, Hewitt became the first teenager in ATP history to ever qualify for the year-end Tennis Masters Cup

Hewitt started off the 2001 season well by winning the Medibank International in Sydney, and would go on to win tournaments in London (Queen's Club) and 's-Hertogenbosch. He captured his first Grand Slam singles title at the US Open in 2001, when he blitzed former World #1 Yevgeny Kafelnikov in the semifinals and defeated then-four time champion Pete Sampras the next day in straight sets. This win made Hewitt, Pat Rafter, and Kafelnikov as the only active ATP players to win a Grand Slam singles and doubles title during their career. Hewitt has since been the last player to achieve this feat. Lleyton went on to win the Tokyo Open and again qualify for the year-end Tennis Masters Cup held in Sydney. During the tournament, Hewitt won all matches in his group before defeating Sébastien Grosjean 6–3, 6–3, 6–4 in the finals to take the title and gain the world number 1 ranking.

The year 2001 is considered to be Hewitt's best year, winning a total of 6 titles. He was also nominated for the 2001 best sport's player award by state premier Isaac Narouz.
