Veronika Kudermetova and Elise Mertens are the new women's doubles champions at Wimbledon.

Trailing 4-2 in the third set, the Belgian and Russian duo managed to overturn the pair of Su-wei Hsieh and Jelena Ostapenko in the final (3-6, 6-2, 6-4) to claim their first Grand Slam title together.

Mertens had previously won the tournament with Hsieh in 2021 before losing a final alongside Shuai Zhang in 2022 and another with Storm Hunter in 2023. Meanwhile, Kudermetova had never before won a Major in the discipline and was coming off an early exit in 2017 with Elena Vesnina.

Ostapenko, who could have become world No. 1 in doubles with a title, will have to settle for third place—still her highest career ranking.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
