Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool’s impressive winning streak will continue as they advance to the Wimbledon final. The British duo secured a 6-3, 6-4 victory over fourth seeds Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos in the semi-finals. This win marks their 13th consecutive match victory, following title wins at Queen’s Club and Eastbourne.

In the quarter-finals, Cash and Glasspool defeated defending champions Harri Heliovaara and Henry Patten. They are currently ranked third in the PIF ATP Live Doubles Teams Rankings, just 95 points behind second place.

The pair is pursuing their sixth team trophy and first Grand Slam title. They will face Rinky Hijikata and David Pel in Saturday’s championship match at the All England Club. This will be their first Lexus ATP Head2Head meeting.

Hijikata and Pel reached the final after a close win against top seeds Marcelo Arevalo and Mate Pavic, saving two match points to secure a 6-7(2), 7-6(5), 7-6(9) victory. Hijikata previously won a major title at the 2023 Australian Open with Jason Kubler, while Pel claimed his only tour-level trophy with Sander Arends in Bastad in 2021.
