Australian Open 2025 results: Britain’s Henry Patten ‘trying to replicate Wimbledon win’ as he reaches doubles last four

Britain’s Henry Patten says he and Finnish partner Harri Heliovaara will “try and replicate” their Wimbledon success at the Australian Open after the pair reached the men’s doubles semi-finals in Melbourne.

The pair claimed a thrilling victory at Wimbledon last year, just three months after joining forces.

They moved a step closer to a second Grand Slam title together with a 6-3 7-5 victory over Monaco’s Hugo Nys and Frenchman Edouard Roger-Vasselin in Wednesday’s quarter-finals.

Sixth seeds Patten and Heliovaara, who have yet to drop a set at Melbourne Park, will face German duo Kevin Krawietz and Tim Puetz in the semi-finals.

“We’ve been in this position before, although not in Australia,” Patten said.

“And when we were here last we played very, very well, so it’s nice to have that in your back pocket.”

Patten returned to court later on Wednesday in the mixed doubles, but he and fellow Briton Olivia Nicholls lost 7-6 (7-2) 6-2 to Australian wildcards Kimberly Birrell and John-Patrick Smith in the semi-finals.

Patten is the last Briton in the doubles after Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool were beaten 7-6 (11-9) 7-6 (7-5) by Krawietz and Puetz.
