Great Britain’s Henry Patten and Finnish team-mate Harri Heliovaara clinched their third major triumph in as many years by regaining their Wimbledon men’s doubles title.
The world number ones beat El Salvador’s Marcelo Arevalo and Croatia’s Mate Pavic 7-6 (7-4) 7-6 (7-3) in front of a delighted Centre Court crowd.
Patten collapsed to the ground after firing down an ace on the pair’s second match point, before being embraced by Heliovaara after his team-mate performed a forward roll in celebration.
The pair achieved their first Wimbledon triumph in 2024 despite only joining forces earlier that year, before winning the Australian Open in 2025.
They lost in the French Open final in June and were beaten by Arevalo and Pavic in the Queen’s final in the build-up to Wimbledon.
However, they would not be denied at the All England Club on Saturday, continuing their excellent record in tie-breaks to capture a tour-leading fifth title of the season.
Neither pairing could force a break point in either set as both teams maintained excellent levels on serve.
But Patten and Heliovaara, having won deciding-set tie-breaks in three of their five matches – and six of the seven tie-breaks they had contested overall – again lifted their level when it counted.
They won four of the first five points to take charge of the first set tie-break, and five of the first six in the second before clinching victory.
In doing so, they became the first team to win multiple Wimbledon men’s doubles titles since American greats Bob and Mike Bryan in 2011.
They continue to go from strength to strength, having captured the world number one ranking for first time in June.
Patten is the first British player in the Open era to win the Wimbledon men’s doubles title on multiple occasions, with this the fourth year in a row a home player has won the title.
