History-makers Cash and Glasspool make plans for Wimbledon windfall
PA Media/DPA London Lloyd Glasspool has a wedding to pay for and Julian Cash is eyeing a new motorbike after the British duo made Wimbledon history by winning the men's doubles title. Cash, 28, and 31-year-old Glasspool beat Australian Rinky Hijikata and David Pel of the Netherlands 6-2, 7-6 (7-3) in the final on Centre Court. In doing so they became the first all-British pairing to win the title since Pat Hughes and Raymond Tuckey lifted the trophy in 1936. The pair will split prize money of £680,000 ($920,000) between them, with Glasspool set to tie the knot with fiancee Sophia Maslin before next year's Championships. On court Glasspool thanked his future wife for 'lying in bed', and afterwards he explained: 'I want to make sure I've had my sleep. 'She's obviously got businesses to run, so she can't be waking up at 9.30am on Mondays or Tuesdays. 'So yeah, I'm appreciative that she will just stay in bed and kind of work quietly and let me sleep.' Cash, meanwhile, is weighing up a new set of wheels having been using his old bike to get to Wimbledon as well as Queen's and Eastbourne, where the duo also won titles. 'I've just been looking,' he said. 'I have one. I've had it for a long time, and I've been using it to get to Queen's, Eastbourne, and here a little bit. 'It's been good for the traffic, so I might have a look at that.'
