British duo Glasspool and Cash advance at Wimbledon

Lloyd Glasspool and Julian Cash have made headlines by advancing to the second round of the men's doubles at Wimbledon 2025 after a solid performance against American Vasil Kirkov and Dutchman Bart Stevens. The British duo, who are the fifth seeds in the tournament, secured their victory in straight sets, winning 7-6 (8-6) 6-4 in a match that lasted one hour and 43 minutes. This win comes on the heels of their recent triumphs at Queen's and Eastbourne, where they showcased their formidable skills. Their victory at Queen's was particularly significant as it marked the first time in the Open era that an all-British team had clinched the men's doubles title at that prestigious tournament. This accomplishment has set a positive tone for their Wimbledon campaign, as they aim to continue their winning streak.

Despite the success of Glasspool and Cash, not all British doubles teams fared well at Wimbledon. Jamie Murray, a seasoned player, along with his American partner Rajeev Ram, faced an early exit when they were defeated by Portugal's Francisco Cabral and Austrian player Lucas Miedler. The match concluded with a score of 7-6 (12-10) 6-3, ending their hopes for a deeper run in the tournament. In the women's doubles, British pair Alicia Barnett and Eden Silva also met disappointment, losing to Colombia's Camila Osorio and Alycia Parks. Although Barnett and Silva started strong by winning the first set decisively, they could not maintain their momentum and ultimately lost the match 1-6 6-3 6-3. Overall, while Glasspool and Cash continue to make history and elevate British tennis, the tournament has seen mixed results for other local pairs in the doubles events.
