Fernandez and Oda broke Hewett and Reid in all four of their service games during the first set, but the Britons responded superbly by winning nine of the next 10 games. That run gave Hewett and Reid a 3-0 lead in the deciding set and they saw out victory in a high-quality final to clinch their 25th Grand Slam doubles title as a duo. Hewett, 28, and 34-year-old Reid also won the French Open in June, while Fernandez and Oda are holders of the other two Grand Slam titles - the US Open and the Australian Open. Hewett and Oda will meet again on Sunday in the men's wheelchair singles final. Oda is the top seed, defending champion and seeking a third singles crown at SW19, while second seed Hewett is aiming to add to his previous title victory in 2024. More to follow.
