Wimbledon final 2025 live: scores, results from Amanda Anisimova vs Iga Swiatek
Joe Harston
Cash and Glasspool are on the home straight now as they break in the second set to go 3-2 up. A double fault from David Pel gave them the break point and then an unforced error from Rinky Hijikata — who has been so reliable at the net — handed the Brits control of the set. A desperate smash from the Australian sailed far wide of the court and towards dodging spectators in the corner.
The No5 seeds followed that up with a characteristically dominant service game, winning that to love and putting themselves in an excellent position for a straight sets victory.

It's over for Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid who were unable to defend their wheelchair doubles title for a second consecutive year.
Their defeat to Martin de la Puente and Ruben Spaargaren might have been in straight sets but they were both settled by fine margins, losing out in a tie-break 7-6 (7-1) in the first before being broken twice in the last three games of the second for the challengers to win 7-5.
Hewett will return tomorrow to defend his singles title in his 21st grand slam singles final against Tokito Oda.

A stunning service game from Julian Cash closes out a pretty much flawless first set for him and Lloyd Glasspool.
Cash's serves were unreturnable throughout that final game. The pair are not hanging about here as they take the lead in less than half an hour.
It is important not to write off Pel and Hijikata as the pair have overcome several match points just to be here, but this one is going a little different to their semi-final against the top seeds. In that one, neither side broke serve, but here they had been broken twice in their first three service games.
The British pair of Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool could not have asked for a better start to this men's doubles final, taking the first set 6-2.
They are aiming to become the first all-British champions since 1936.

It's clear that David Pel's serve can be a weapon but right now he is struggling to land his first serves. There's very little room for error against Cash and Glasspool at the top of their game and that is proving to be the case here.
The British pair have just broken again and are sure to take the first set here as they now lead 4-1. The Centre Court crowd are loving this one, with lots of action at the net making it a great spectacle and it's all going the right way for the No5 seeds.

Over on No1 court, Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid have broken serve in the second set and are now poised to take their final to a deciding set.

Well if there were any nerves in the British camp then they might be starting to settle as Lloyd Glasspool and Julian Cash broke serve to love in the very first game of this final.
They followed it up with a comfortable hold of serve but could not repeat their first game heroics in the third game, just struggling to return serves with accuracy. They are winning the battle at the net so far though as they lead 2-1.
Two-times defending Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz is out on the practice courts ahead of his Men's singles final tomorrow against rival Jannik Sinner.

We are just about ready to go on Centre Court for the men's doubles final where British duo Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool have the chance to make Wimbledon history as the first all-British winners of the open era.
However, standing in their way are resident giant killers Rinky Hijikata and David Pel who should not have even been in the main draw. The pair qualified as alternates having barely spoken to each other before the Championships but now find themselves on the brink of completing the ultimate underdog story after knocking out the top seeds in the semi final.
Joe Harston
Lloyd Glasspool and Julian Cash are the first all-British team to play in the men's doubles final since 1960. They are in action on Centre Court at 1pm when they will attempt to finish off an outstanding grass court hat-trick after winning at Eastbourne and Queen's Club this year.
However, looking to cause the ultimate upset are alternates Rinky Hijikata and David Pel. Their run to the final has been meteoric, having barely spoken to each other before this tournament. Their dramatic fortnight in SW19 has seen them come back from multiple match points in their opening rounds and defeat the No1 seeds in the semi-final.
Joe Harston
This first set has been tight to say the least with both sides breaking on multiple occasions early on. However, it is the contenders in Martin de la Puente and Ruben Spaargaren who have taken control of this one by winning the first set via a tie-break.
The Brits had done excellently to force a tie-break with a break of serve in the 12th game, but they were defeated easily after that.
Alfie Hewett's luck in the closing stages of the set was summed up by a forehand from the baseline that struck the net cord and bounced narrowly wide. That put the challengers 4-0 up and they went on to win that 7-1.
De la Puente, maybe spurred on by his straight sets defeat to Hewett in the singles yesterday, has been masterful in this one and particularly clinical at the net where his drop shot volleys have been a major part of their first set success.

The biggest disappointment of this year's Championships? Having had my hopes raised by a report stating this summer's crop of strawberries would be the sweetest in decades. I grabbed a punnet from the media cafe, poured on the cream, spooned one into my mouth and… Spat it out. So much for a rare combo of sunny days and cool nights equalling perfection. But I can report an improvement as the tournament comes to a close. They are ok now but not so lovely as to wipe the memory of that first bite.
