Neal Skupski made history when he added the Wimbledon men’s doubles to his mixed doubles titles here from each of the past two years. The 33-year-old joined forces with the Dutchman Wesley Koolhof to beat Marcel Granollers of Spain and Horacio Zeballos of Argentina 6-4, 6-4.

The victory gave both Skupski and Koolhof, the No 1 seeds, their first men’s doubles grand slam title, having been runners-up in the US Open last year.
