Skupski wins twice in a day in doubles

Britain's Neal Skupski continued his quest for a fourth Wimbledon title in as many years with two doubles wins on Monday.

His day began with a 7-5 6-3 victory in the third round of the men's doubles with New Zealand's Michael Venus, as they beat Americans Christopher Eubanks and Evan King.

Skupski later teamed up with American Desirae Krawczyk in the mixed doubles, renewing the partnership that brought them titles on the south-west London grass in 2021 and 2022.

The former champions needed a match tie-break to beat Brazilians Rafael Matos and Luisa Stefani 6-4 6-7 (4-7) 11-9.

Last year's Australian Open mixed doubles champions Matos and Stefani could not convert a match point in the match tie-break as sixth seeds Skupski and Krawczyk reached the second round where France's Fabrice Martin and Spain's Cristina Bucsa await them.

Martin and Bucsa beat the all-British wildcard team of Lloyd Glasspool and Harriet Dart 6-3 7-6 (7-5) in the first round.

Skupski won the men's doubles title with Wesley Koolhof last year.

This time around, Skupski and Venus are together as the ninth seeds and will play Constantin Frantzen and Hendrik Jebens in the quarter-finals. The German duo beat Glasspool and Dutchman Jean-Julien Rojer 7-6 (7-5) 7-6 (7-3) in the third round.
