British men win Wimbledon doubles
Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool have become the first all-British pairing to win the men's doubles final at Wimbledon in the Open era. A 6-2, 7-6 win secured the title in record time after David Pel of Netherlands and Australia's Rinky Hijikata were swept aside in the new three-set format. Cash, 28, and Glasspool, 31, were already the first all-British pair to reach the final since Mike Davies and Bobby Wilson in 1960. In 30C temperatures on Centre Court, the big-serving pair easily overpowered their opponents in the first set, hitting the same form that saw them serve 11 aces to their opponents' none in the semi-final. However, there were jitters in the second set before they regained composure to take the title in a 7-3 tie-break. The pair have been irresistible on grass this summer, having also been the first British men's pair to win Queen's in the Open era. They also triumphed at Eastbourne, having knocked out defending Wimbledon champions Henry Patten and Harri Heliovaara. Britons have been in the ascendancy in the doubles for several years, with Patten winning the title alongside Finnish partner Heliovaara last year.

Wimbledon: Rinky Hijikata eyes doubles riches, as Anisimova, Swiatek face off in women's final
Rinky Hijikata will play for a share of $1.4 million (AUD) in prizemoney when he and David Pel face all-conquering British duo Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool in the doubles final. The son of Japanese immigrants who started playing tennis as a three-year-old, Hinjikata is on the cusp of his biggest achievement on the court to date. While he has an Australian Open doubles title triumph on his CV already, a Wimbledon win would be another brilliant string on the bow for the 24-year-old Sydneysider. But he and Dutchman Pel will be huge underdogs, as they face a pairing who have twice won the Wimbledon title (2022-23). The doubles decider is the entree to the women's singles final, where a new champion is guaranteed for the eighth conscutive year. Five-time Grand Slam winner Iga Swiatek had previously never gone beyond the quarter-finals at the All England Club while US 13th seed Amanda Anisimova is preparing for her first major final. No player has retained the crown since the now-retired Serena Williams won her seventh and final Wimbledon title in 2016. Aryna Sabalenka started as the hot favourite after reaching the past three Grand Slam finals but faltered in a gripping semi-final against Anisimova. Poland's Swiatek is seeded eighth at Wimbledon following a disappointing first half of the season, though she is back up to fourth in the rankings after reaching the final of the grass-court Bad Homburg tournament. That run, together with her surge through the draw at All England Club, suggests the 24-year-old is cured of her grass-court allergy.
