Son Heung-min scored his 100th goal for Tottenham as they returned to winning ways in the Premier League against Leeds.
Spurs' first league victory since 6 December lifts them to third in the table, with Leeds remaining 11th.
While Jose Mourinho's side merited their win, Leeds played a significant part in their own downfall.
Goalkeeper Illan Meslier's misplaced pass led to Harry Kane opening the scoring with a penalty after Ezgjan Alioski fouled Steven Bergwijn.
Kane then turned provider, with a curling cross from the right that was swept in by Son at the near post as the hosts doubled their advantage.
While Leeds streamed forward at every opportunity and carved out chances of their own, they often left themselves exposed in defence and were fortunate not to be more severely punished by Mourinho's side.
As it was, Toby Alderweireld's near-post header rounded off the scoring at the start of the second half, with Meslier again culpable as he fumbled the ball over the line.
The only negative of the day for Spurs was the stoppage-time dismissal of defender Matt Doherty for a second booking.
