Hewett and Reid Claim Seventh Wimbledon Doubles Title

Britain's Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid captured their seventh Wimbledon wheelchair doubles crown Saturday, rallying past Tokito Oda and Gustavo Fernandez 2-6, 6-1, 6-2 on No. 1 Court. The top-seeded Argentine-Japanese duo, reigning Australian and US Open champions, dominated the opener before the British pair seized control.

The victory marks the 25th Grand Slam doubles title for Hewett and Reid as a team. Hewett, 26, now turns his focus to Sunday's singles final against Oda, the world No. 1, where he will bid for a second Wimbledon singles crown and first since 2024.

The tournament coincides with wheelchair tennis's 50th anniversary and the 10th year of singles competition at the All England Club — Hewett and Reid won their first doubles title together a decade ago. In the quad draw, Britain's Andy Lapthorne fell 6-1, 6-1 to Dutch second seed Sam Schroder, who will meet top seed Niels Vink in an all-Netherlands final.

Hewett's path to a rare singles-doubles sweep at his home major sharpens the narrative around British wheelchair tennis's golden era. With Reid, 33, still performing at elite level, their partnership remains the sport's most decorated — but Sunday's rematch with Oda will test whether Hewett can translate doubles dominance into solo glory.
