Brit watch

There was success for Great Britain in the mixed doubles final, although it came at the expense of two other Brits. Neal Skupski and his American partner Desirae Krawczyk beat Joe Salisbury and Harriet Dart 6-2 7-6 (1). It was a slam double for Krawczyk, who won the French Open two months ago – with Salisbury as her partner.

The kids are all right

Samir Banerjee added his name to a list including the likes of Stefan Edberg, Pat Cash and Andy Roddick by winning the Wimbledon boys’ singles title. The 17-year-old from New Jersey beat fellow American Victor Lilov 7-5 6-3 in an hour and 21 minutes on Court One. The girls’ title went to Ane Mintegi Del Olmo, who came from a set down to defeat Nastasja Mariana Schunk.
