He started with successes in Grade 5 events, such as winning the J5 San Jose title in January 2021, which helped build his ranking from outside the top 50 to a career-high of No. 12 on March 15, 2021. His breakthrough came in February 2021 at the J1 Junior Championships in , where he entered as a qualifier and captured the title by defeating world No. 1 junior in the final, marking his most significant achievement on the circuit.

In the semifinals, Borg overcame Finn Reynolds 1-6, 6-4, 6-4, showcasing resilience after dropping the opening set. He sealed the title in the final against Bor Artnak, rallying from a set down to win 3-6, 7-5, 6-4, earning $2,160 in prize money and his first professional trophy at age 19.

Off clay, Borg secured a significant milestone by winning the ITF M15 Kingston title in in May, defeating Corey Craig 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 in the final on hard courts to claim his second ITF singles trophy. These results reflected a mixed year of progression at lower levels amid tougher scheduling on the Challenger and ATP circuits.

Playing style and equipment

Technique and strengths

Leo Borg plays right-handed with a two-handed , a technique that echoes the signature stroke popularized by his father, , who modeled it after an slap shot. His overall style exhibits a baseline-oriented approach, blending aggressive groundstrokes with solid defensive capabilities, though former world No. 1 has observed that Leo's game shares little in common with his father's revolutionary topspin-heavy baseline play, instead highlighting his good touch, technique, and positive attitude while noting typical developmental weaknesses. Borg's forehand serves as his primary weapon for aggression, allowing him to dictate points from the back of the with power and precision in a modern vein, while his two-handed provides reliability for both defensive retrievals and passing shots. Key strengths include exceptional coverage and endurance, particularly on hard , where his athletic build—marked by wide, muscular shoulders—enables prolonged rallies and consistent movement. His serve has shown notable development since his junior days, contributing to improved break-point conversion rates, as evidenced by his efficient 6-3, 6-4 victory over a top-150 opponent in , where he converted two of three break opportunities. Despite these assets, Borg has faced challenges with inconsistency on clay, where his has been vulnerable to exploitation, such as when repeatedly pinned him in that corner during their Bastad encounter on the heavy, wet surface. Adaptation to high-pressure scenarios against elite competition remains an area for growth, though Nadal himself praised Borg's performance as "quite well" played, underscoring his potential. In comparisons to his father, Leo's style evokes Björn's flat-hitting baseline efficiency but incorporates greater modern athleticism and versatility, reflecting an evolving game suited to contemporary tennis demands.

Coaching and gear

Leo Borg has been coached primarily by Rickard Billing since his early professional years, with Billing serving as his base coach in Stockholm, Sweden. In 2020, Borg briefly trained at the Rafa Nadal Academy in Manacor, Spain, before returning to his base in Sweden to focus on development there. His training is centered in Stockholm, where he maintains a rigorous schedule emphasizing consistency and adaptation to professional demands. For equipment, Borg endorses rackets, having tested and customized models during sessions at the brand's headquarters and continuing as an ambassador.
