Fifth-seeded Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool won their first Grand Slam title as a team at Wimbledon on Saturday, defeating Rinky Hijikata and David Pel 6-2, 7-6(3) in the final.

Cash and Glasspool became the first British team to win the All England Club title since 1936, when Pat Hughes and Raymond Tuckey defeated fellow Britons Charles Hare and Frank Wilde in the final."When you say it, it sounds incredible," said Glasspool.

"I played a lot of grass tennis, all the matches I could play. So a lot of people were talking about this event. The pressure was really high. And the fact that we were able to do what everyone was talking about is unreal," Cash said.

Finalists Rinky Hijikata and David Pel, who lost, remained optimistic despite the result

“We didn’t even know each other before the tournament,” said Pel, 34. “I mean, we first spoke the day the tournament started.”

Hijikata, who won the Australian Open in 2023 with Jason Kubler, described the experience at the All England Club as"a crazy journey."
