GB's Hewett Faces Oda in Wimbledon Wheelchair Singles Final After Doubles Title Loss

At Wimbledon 2025, Alfie Hewett is aiming to secure his second consecutive singles title, having reached the final against top seed Tokito Oda after defeating Martin de la Puente in the semi-finals. However, in the men's wheelchair doubles final, Hewett and his partner Gordon Reid, who were seeking a historic third consecutive Wimbledon doubles title and their 24th Grand Slam title as a pair, were defeated by the second seeds Martin de la Puente and Ruben Spaargaren in straight sets. The match was highly competitive, with a tightly contested first set decided by a tie-break, where Hewett and Reid fell behind after losing six consecutive points. Despite a strong crowd support and efforts to regain momentum, errors and critical points lost on serve ultimately led to their defeat. Meanwhile, British quad doubles player Gregory Slade and his partner Donald Ramphadi finished as runners-up, falling to top seeds Niels Vink and Guy Sasson. Both Hewett and Reid expressed disappointment but gratitude for the home crowd's support and hope to continue competing at the highest level in future years.
