My dad is perfect! -- that is perfect. Wimbledon champion again! | :00:25. | :00:43. | |
It is a much brighter afternoon and we are all set to go again with this | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
wheelchair men's doubles final, three hours after the rain drove | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
them off cod three on the other side of Court One. We are ready to resume | :00:57. | :01:03. | |
again. The contest between the French top seeds, the favourites and | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
the British defending champions. The French Stephane Houdet and Nicholas | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
Peifer and Gordon Reid and Alfie Hewett. And when the rains came, it | :01:15. | :01:23. | |
was the Britons who were fighting their way back into this final, | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
having lost the first set on a tie-break, 7-6, right at the start | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
of the second set, they have taken an early lead, breaking the server | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
of the French. The 25-year-old left hand from Glasgow there. The men's | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
singles champion here last year, he won the doubles as well with Alfie | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
Hewett. They do not lack support. They are in a right old battle | :01:51. | :02:01. | |
today, against Houdet and Peifer. Enjoying wheelchair tennis again at | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
Wimbledon is one of our best ever wheelchair tennis players, who won | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
ten Grand Slam titles. He got ten Paralympic medals as well. This has | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
been a very good contest so far. Good afternoon. It is poised to be | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
really exciting. Anglo-French contest again. I don't know if any | :02:27. | :02:34. | |
of you remember from the Olympics last year, this was one of the | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
defining matches, these players played out, and the British player | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
unfortunately took silver and the French took gold and I watched that | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
and it was so thrilling. I have got a feeling, this is gearing up for | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
that as well. It is also a repeat of the final last year, that went to | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
three sets. We will see. Here is Alfie Hewett. | :03:00. | :03:32. | |
It is about how quickly every player can get started. When they look at | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
this as a new match or a continuation of one? A new view, a | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
new vision. Brilliant recovery. From Gordon | :03:45. | :04:16. | |
Reid. His singles fight ended on Thursday. He is working so hard to | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
hold on to his doubles crown. The British player will be pleased about | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
that miss by Houdet. The Norfolk teenager there, he is | :04:25. | :04:40. | |
from Great Yarmouth. That is a really significant hold, | :04:41. | :05:00. | |
coming back out after the rain delayed at dues. -- deuce. I was | :05:01. | :05:13. | |
thinking which players would come out stronger. Gordon just came out | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
there, walloped a high forehand out wide. 2-0 up, second set. Just long. | :05:20. | :05:34. | |
Had a look to the umpire who is Brazilian. They do have Hawk-Eye on | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
Court number three. They have decided that was not worth | :05:41. | :05:41. | |
challenging. Wonderful touch. He will have to do | :05:42. | :06:11. | |
a bit more of that, I think. That is the kind of form that won him | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
there's singles title here last summer and won him Olympic gold in | :06:17. | :06:27. | |
Rio. I think you will try and see Gordon and Alfie try and mix it up a | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
bit more, come closer to the net. Rather than both staying back. | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
Houdet is doing that now. Break point against the serve of | :06:36. | :07:22. | |
Nicholas Peifer. The 26-year-old who lives just outside Paris, | :07:23. | :07:23. | |
Versailles. That is a rather tame way to tackle | :07:24. | :07:42. | |
the second break, but it has been a wonderful start. A wonderful start. | :07:43. | :07:51. | |
Post resumption for Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid. You're aware, Peter, | :07:52. | :08:01. | |
that lots of people now, enjoying wheelchair doubles for the first | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
time this afternoon, bring us up to speed with the rules and | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
regulations, pretty much what you see in the able-bodied game. The | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
rules are the same, you are allowed the second bounce, the first round | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
must be in the confines of the Court and the second can be anywhere. In | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
doubles, that means they can use the whole court and you can see them | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
even going into the canvas on the sides, the roof etc. If the ball | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
hits the chair before bouncing then you lose the point, if you get the | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
ball in the wheels, you must not fall out. If you do it, it is a let | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
and if you keep doing it, you lose a point. Wheelchair tennis is the same | :08:45. | :08:52. | |
as tennis, tennis is tennis. And here are two of the best that this | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
version of the sport has had to offer, Nicholas Peifer and Stephane | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
Houdet. A Frenchman took the title that day at Roland Garros, on clay. | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
This time, we are on grass. The British duo working hard to take us | :09:14. | :09:15. | |
into a third deciding set, 3-0. Fantastic. Great reaction by Alfie | :09:16. | :09:42. | |
Hewett there. Peifer took that out of the sky. Straight into the | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
netting zone and Alfie Hewett, backhand, reversed down the line for | :09:47. | :09:48. | |
the winner. Judged that perfectly. Lovely | :09:49. | :09:59. | |
languid forehand there. Won the Paralympic title by beating | :10:00. | :10:36. | |
the bloke who he is playing with today. Alfie Hewett took the silver | :10:37. | :10:50. | |
and Gordon Reid took the gold. And right now, Houdet and Peifer have | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
not got going since the rain delay. They are looking a bit sluggish. The | :10:54. | :11:05. | |
British players were a set down and they had to come out firing. We | :11:06. | :11:13. | |
could go to the third set, but you can never write off the French, | :11:14. | :11:15. | |
especially Houdet. Stephane Houdet, 46 now. Continuing | :11:16. | :11:33. | |
to play at such an incredible level, he is really one of the old soldiers | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
of the sport, it is a former world number one. He is just behind the | :11:38. | :11:45. | |
current world number one, Gustavo Fernandez. | :11:46. | :11:56. | |
It is good if your partner is hitting a deep shot and one of the | :11:57. | :12:11. | |
tactics is to follow him in and get close to the net. Again, another | :12:12. | :12:18. | |
good shot by Hewett, he is been the aggressor at the moment. -- he is | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
being the aggressor. That is a good drop shot. On that | :12:24. | :12:42. | |
green grass, the ball guys, well controlled forehand drop shot. ?1, | :12:43. | :12:54. | |
two bounce and then it dies. -- ?1. They got the cover song quickly when | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
it started to rain around half past 12. Heavy conditions this morning. | :12:58. | :13:06. | |
They will not be playing any quicker now, those lush green patches are | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
big targets for the drop shot. This, for the Britons, is an opportunity | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
to go 5-0 up and surely be on the verge of taking this into a third | :13:18. | :13:19. | |
deciding set. Good try by Gordon. He saw Peifer | :13:20. | :13:37. | |
rolling in and coming up to the service line and thought he would do | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
a high lob over the top and he would have had an open court for him to | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
come back. He has been one of the great flag | :13:45. | :14:08. | |
flyers for this board for so long, before that he was a flag flyer for | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
golf and he has never given up the trick of wearing gloves when he | :14:14. | :14:20. | |
plays sport. Actually a world number one golfer, he is multitalented, | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
Stephane Houdet. It will have helped him, when the rain came, but gloves, | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
giving him a bit more grip on the tyres. | :14:30. | :14:56. | |
O, they are making a mock up of it. Look at the Houdet. What are you | :14:57. | :15:08. | |
doing? A great get by Gordon, but look. Not a lot of sympathy. | :15:09. | :15:36. | |
Stephane Houdet is a qualified vet in Paris. | :15:37. | :15:54. | |
He was giving Peifer are talking to as well. Trying to get his head up, | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
trying to get him to concentrate. It was a good return but Peifer sat | :16:00. | :16:11. | |
still on the baseline. It was a feature of this final | :16:12. | :17:00. | |
before the rain came. They were just a little bit more imaginative in | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
their court positions. They are gambling at the net a bit more. | :17:05. | :17:32. | |
You are right. And Alfie is pushing in and putting pressure on Peifer. | :17:33. | :17:39. | |
Peifer is making the errors. Just to dispel my theory he goes and | :17:40. | :17:57. | |
does a superb backhand crosscourt down the sideline! Hugely talented | :17:58. | :18:10. | |
these players. This is the longest game of the match. | :18:11. | :18:40. | |
You can see Hewett was moving his chair all the time on the return of | :18:41. | :18:49. | |
serve. But to no avail, Houdet did a wonderful serve. It is not the pace, | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
it is the placement. That was a great smash. Hewett | :18:53. | :19:35. | |
missed three of those in the first set. I am a bit confused as to why | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
two French blokes are talking to each other in English on the court. | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
But there was no confusion about that smash from Alfie Hewett. | :19:47. | :19:59. | |
They have not had a challenge yet. They are enjoying using Hawk-Eye for | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
the first time. They are on the board for the first | :20:05. | :20:35. | |
time in this second set. It is wonderful that the sport is | :20:36. | :21:02. | |
getting this exposure, Peter. You were one of those who in the early | :21:03. | :21:08. | |
days went to Athens and Beijing when the BBC covered this life. You were | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
setting the pace down. But the game and the sport has moved on. At the | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
moment these four are at the forefront and from a British | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
perspective and an's prospective Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid are | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
doing great. Yes, they are fantastic ambassadors. They are pushing the | :21:30. | :21:36. | |
boundaries of tennis as well. It is fantastic to be on the BBC and to be | :21:37. | :21:44. | |
at Wimbledon. We never expected that two decades ago. The technology has | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
moved on as well with the chairs and the rackets. It is great to see. | :21:48. | :21:55. | |
What are the chairs made out of? Most of them are detaining, | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
extremely light. Bespoke products. You do not have to have a canister | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
to play tennis, but it does help. This is Alfie Hewett. Serving at 4-1 | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
in the second set. How well did he play? He is having a | :22:16. | :22:58. | |
wonderful month or so. He made a bit of wheelchair tennis history in | :22:59. | :23:01. | |
Paris last month when he became the first Briton to win the French Open | :23:02. | :23:08. | |
singles, beating Gustavo Fernandez in the final at Roland Garros, the | :23:09. | :23:17. | |
world number one. They also make him IPC athlete of the month. He has had | :23:18. | :23:28. | |
a great quarter here. You can see it in his play, he is feeling | :23:29. | :23:30. | |
confident, happy and fit. They started to play for the first | :23:31. | :23:52. | |
time in 2007. It was the first time Wimbledon invited wheelchair | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
players. They had been playing at the other Grand Slams on the hard | :23:58. | :23:59. | |
courts for a while. It has got to be a timely challenge, | :24:00. | :24:38. | |
that is the phrase. For the Brazilian referee that was not | :24:39. | :24:38. | |
timely. In the mind of Stephane Houdet it | :24:39. | :24:49. | |
was timely, but on we go. Alfie Hewett has come out inspired | :24:50. | :25:18. | |
since the rain delay. The young man from Norwich. He is guiding this | :25:19. | :25:33. | |
British duo towards the third set. That is how you do a reverse | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
backhand top-spin across court in wheelchair tennis. | :25:38. | :26:07. | |
Went as high as number two, the Frenchman in the world. This is at | :26:08. | :26:14. | |
number five. The sport is being played at its | :26:15. | :26:32. | |
best at the moment at the best tournament in the world. | :26:33. | :27:59. | |
He is playing the tennis of his championships right now. The great | :28:00. | :28:08. | |
forehand return. Peifer had not moved from service position when the | :28:09. | :28:09. | |
ball went past him. Oh, it had to be. He was almost | :28:10. | :28:25. | |
sitting in the front row. That was outstanding. A flick of the wrist at | :28:26. | :28:32. | |
the end. Wow. That is the talent. There we go, some brilliance from | :28:33. | :28:43. | |
the Frenchman. Houdet on the left, Peifer on the | :28:44. | :29:32. | |
right. Houdet took to disability golf Festival after he had a crash | :29:33. | :29:37. | |
on his motorbike. He was a really good able-bodied junior tennis | :29:38. | :29:42. | |
player before the crash, became one of the more decorated tennis | :29:43. | :29:52. | |
players. He switched to tennis after meeting Johan Cruyff, his foundation | :29:53. | :29:56. | |
was a big supporter of wheelchair tennis. You'll find Johan Cruyff | :29:57. | :30:06. | |
doing juniors and competitions each year, all about the new blood, | :30:07. | :30:11. | |
bringing youngsters into the sport. The foundation is still hugely | :30:12. | :30:17. | |
virtual. -- hugely influential. That's where some of these players | :30:18. | :30:24. | |
have come from. The tennis foundation is doing good work as | :30:25. | :30:33. | |
well. There are working to get products into centres. British | :30:34. | :30:40. | |
wheelchair tennis is being driven in the right direction. | :30:41. | :31:08. | |
Gordon Reid looking to serve out the second set. | :31:09. | :31:50. | |
Gordon overrun that, he span round. And he span straight into the balls | :31:51. | :32:00. | |
so he couldn't really hit a very good shot. Houdet just came in and | :32:01. | :32:01. | |
hit it away for a winner. Looks like they're going to get | :32:02. | :32:08. | |
broken again, the British pair. Yes, the Britons who had led 5-1, | :32:09. | :32:28. | |
still lead 5-3. They still have the break of serve. It's getting just a | :32:29. | :32:32. | |
little tighter than they would have expected. That's when it's going to | :32:33. | :32:38. | |
be problems, especially for the British, because they need this | :32:39. | :32:43. | |
second set to go to a third and deciding set. Once more, Stephane | :32:44. | :32:46. | |
Houdet. There's been a change of momentum in | :32:47. | :33:37. | |
this second set. I think they got to 5-1 and a relaxed, took an effort | :33:38. | :33:38. | |
off the pedal. Hopefully that will galvanise them | :33:39. | :34:46. | |
into being a bit more positive. They got to keep the chairs moving. Keep | :34:47. | :34:48. | |
positive. The French roll to their bags and | :34:49. | :35:16. | |
the water and the towels having won the last three games and just giving | :35:17. | :35:20. | |
Hewett and Reid a little bit to chew on here. And it will be a test of | :35:21. | :35:29. | |
Alfie Hewett's new-found confidence, he's been working really hard, we | :35:30. | :35:34. | |
know, over the last few years, on the nerves. He'll happily admit that | :35:35. | :35:39. | |
on big occasions like this previously, he is still a teenager, | :35:40. | :35:43. | |
still only young, but the nerves would sometimes get the better of | :35:44. | :35:47. | |
him. He's got to, all of the work he's done over the next few minutes, | :35:48. | :35:52. | |
he's got to use that work he did with the sports psychologist. We've | :35:53. | :36:01. | |
been encouraging our juniors to go to big tournaments like the | :36:02. | :36:04. | |
Paralympics to taste and feel what the atmosphere and pressure is like. | :36:05. | :36:09. | |
He's been here before, he's played one Wimbledon, played the | :36:10. | :36:15. | |
Paralympics, one the silver medal there, just won his first Grand Slam | :36:16. | :36:22. | |
in France. He's getting used to this pressure. They're going to come out | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
and serve for the second set. The pressure is well and truly starting | :36:27. | :36:32. | |
to build. Right then, healthy, what have you got? -- Alfie? Serve this | :36:33. | :36:38. | |
and you will be in a third set. They were racking up the pace in | :36:39. | :37:16. | |
there and Alfie hit back to Peifer's line and gave him more as an angle | :37:17. | :37:17. | |
to hit out of the trams. Great shot by Gordon Reid. Houdet at | :37:18. | :37:36. | |
full strength didn't get to that. Right into the bottom corner. | :37:37. | :38:06. | |
Never a good time to do a double fault. Only the second in the final. | :38:07. | :38:11. | |
They'll get away with it. Maybe. Made up for his double-faulted with | :38:12. | :38:43. | |
a lovely backhand winner. That's what we used to call a daisy | :38:44. | :39:09. | |
cutter. Having led 5-1, it could be 5-5 very shortly. | :39:10. | :39:45. | |
That's brave, isn't it? A break point down. | :39:46. | :39:52. | |
That forehand, through his whole body weight into that. | :39:53. | :40:38. | |
That's cool and collected. Great fishing there. -- great pushing. | :40:39. | :40:48. | |
Bearing down the line. Tried his flashing backhand again, | :40:49. | :41:19. | |
didn't quite come off. The first half of this final, it's very often | :41:20. | :41:25. | |
that he is the barometer of the team, Alfie Hewett. There's a level | :41:26. | :41:31. | |
of consistency that we'd played at but Hewett can fluctuate, he's | :41:32. | :41:35. | |
playing like the player that was winning all those points once they | :41:36. | :41:36. | |
resumed half hour ago. You're right, and I think when | :41:37. | :41:50. | |
Hewett is aggressive and pushing and doing his flashing backhand is, Reid | :41:51. | :41:57. | |
places nice, level game, they start winning a string of points in a row. | :41:58. | :42:13. | |
This is starting to reach critical proportions from a British | :42:14. | :42:17. | |
perspective but well done to the French, they've charged their way | :42:18. | :42:20. | |
back into the spinal. They were 5-1 down a few -- into this final. They | :42:21. | :42:28. | |
were 5-1 down a few units ago and it seemed inevitable that there would | :42:29. | :42:33. | |
be a third set but it could still end here. | :42:34. | :42:56. | |
I love that shot. First bounce off the serve, move in. Wheeling right | :42:57. | :43:04. | |
over the baseline. Lean into the shot, which it away for a winner. | :43:05. | :43:25. | |
Houdet almost saw its trickling over. Didn't quite do it. | :43:26. | :43:53. | |
The damage was done when Hewett to Reid time to look where the gap was, | :43:54. | :44:00. | |
to maximise the damage. Having forced their way back in, | :44:01. | :44:43. | |
they suddenly drop their serve. You wonder just how good Alfie Hewett | :44:44. | :44:47. | |
could be if he is playing at the levels he is playing at the moment | :44:48. | :44:52. | |
as an 19-year-old. He has got so much more developing to do, so much | :44:53. | :44:58. | |
more to achieve. Yes, he has got a long way to go. The only problem is | :44:59. | :45:11. | |
you can get injuries. The boundaries have been pushed, but you have to | :45:12. | :45:17. | |
look after your body as well. He had an elbow injury and he is making his | :45:18. | :45:23. | |
way back from that. You do recover when you are younger, but to give | :45:24. | :45:28. | |
yourself longevity, you have to look after yourself. Also his tournament | :45:29. | :45:33. | |
planning has to be spot on. These are all full-time professionals now. | :45:34. | :45:37. | |
Absolutely, they go around the circuit. There are many tournaments | :45:38. | :45:46. | |
around the world. There is big prize money. Quite a bit of value on a | :45:47. | :46:00. | |
Wimbledon title. Gordon Reid has got a couple of them. He is about to | :46:01. | :46:02. | |
serve. It is the bigwigs. | :46:03. | :46:21. | |
CHEERING It is on the line. Arms down from | :46:22. | :47:44. | |
the baseline died. Peifer left that thinking Houdet was covering him. | :47:45. | :47:53. | |
As high as the quality of the tennis has been, the quality of the | :47:54. | :48:02. | |
challenging has been ropey. You need more practice, boys. | :48:03. | :48:13. | |
REFEREE: Game and second set. They won the title in the third set last | :48:14. | :49:07. | |
summer. They are into a third set here this summer. They are refusing | :49:08. | :49:15. | |
to give up their Wimbledon title. Hewett and Reid have taken us to a | :49:16. | :49:23. | |
decider. They are smiling actually. Just thinking they needed that. They | :49:24. | :49:28. | |
will settle a bit more now. That made them feel a bit more | :49:29. | :49:34. | |
comfortable. Of all the points, which ones catch your eyes. The ones | :49:35. | :49:40. | |
in yellow are the good points. First serves in, the best are from the | :49:41. | :49:42. | |
Britons. They are playing a bit more solid | :49:43. | :50:00. | |
and they will feel a bit more comfortable on the grass now. Alfie | :50:01. | :50:06. | |
has been coming in and switching that play on serve. As one is | :50:07. | :50:12. | |
serving, the other one comes in. The opponents have got to look for the | :50:13. | :50:14. | |
gap. It means a lot. He is so animated. | :50:15. | :50:28. | |
Gordon Reid meantime in the background has the look of a man who | :50:29. | :50:34. | |
knows there is still a lot of work to do to retain the title. He likes | :50:35. | :50:47. | |
Alfie getting excited. He pushes him along on court. Centre Court were to | :50:48. | :50:52. | |
mean Muguruza has just become the women's champion. | :50:53. | :51:06. | |
Getting the third set under way with new balls. | :51:07. | :51:43. | |
There have been one or two of those over the course of the day that he | :51:44. | :52:11. | |
would take back if he could. Houdet hit it from the top of the racket. | :52:12. | :52:18. | |
Not as secure in the overheads as he normally is. | :52:19. | :52:24. | |
All their friends and family are in town. Those who were not friends | :52:25. | :52:52. | |
before today will be very quick to become friends. That is what it is | :52:53. | :52:58. | |
about. Come and watch some wheelchair tennis and get a | :52:59. | :53:01. | |
masterclass in doubles from the top players. Being Wimbledon champion is | :53:02. | :53:10. | |
not something you get to do every day of your life. | :53:11. | :53:18. | |
They will be the first pair if they could ever retain their title. Alfie | :53:19. | :53:24. | |
Hewett. Got to keep the chair moving. Alfie | :53:25. | :53:49. | |
Hewett was a bit guilty just sitting there. He blocked his view. | :53:50. | :55:01. | |
Good change of direction by Hewett. A lovely backhand down the line. | :55:02. | :55:16. | |
It is a cool day in South West London today. Nowhere near the heat | :55:17. | :55:33. | |
we had in the first week. There is Stuart Wilkinson and Karen Ross from | :55:34. | :55:37. | |
the tennis foundation. Nowhere near as hot as the first | :55:38. | :55:53. | |
week. We have had that three hour rain break. | :55:54. | :55:58. | |
A final being played in two pass. The first part was definitely shaded | :55:59. | :56:08. | |
in French colours. Houdet and Peifer won the first set. Since the | :56:09. | :56:13. | |
resumption it has been the other way. That was a super serve. He has | :56:14. | :56:23. | |
got much more reach and look over the net and it gives him much more | :56:24. | :56:25. | |
angles to serve it to. Interesting to see one or two | :56:26. | :57:15. | |
interruptions over the last few minutes because of people in the | :57:16. | :57:20. | |
crowd moving around, late to take their seats. It is fascinating to | :57:21. | :57:26. | |
see how the tournament they will have in Milan goes in November which | :57:27. | :57:30. | |
will be played and experimental rules. One of the rules off the | :57:31. | :57:35. | |
court is people can come and go whenever they want. They do not have | :57:36. | :57:41. | |
to wait for the change of ends. If they want to get a hot dog and 0-40, | :57:42. | :57:48. | |
they can get a hot dog. Relax the game a bit, make it a bit more | :57:49. | :57:53. | |
user-friendly. In Rio last year Johnny Vegas walked onto Lucy | :57:54. | :58:01. | |
Shuker's court and sat there for about 15 minutes and no one said | :58:02. | :58:05. | |
anything. The best view of the court. How much were you distracted | :58:06. | :58:10. | |
by movement when you were in the crowd when you were playing? With | :58:11. | :58:22. | |
lots of noise and with lots of people, some people are very close | :58:23. | :58:31. | |
to you on court. When you are not completely focused you start looking | :58:32. | :58:34. | |
and seeing and hearing everything. Then it gets difficult. When you are | :58:35. | :58:37. | |
a it does not matter. There could be on court coaching by | :58:38. | :58:58. | |
headsets, no let's. No advantages, you just play a deciding point to | :58:59. | :58:59. | |
deuce. Meantime, back to the job in hand. | :59:00. | :59:14. | |
The men's wheelchair doubles final between the French pair, Stephane | :59:15. | :59:25. | |
Houdet and Nicolas Peifer, and the British pair, Alfie Hewett and | :59:26. | :59:29. | |
Gordon Reid. The history between these two pairs, it's a lengthy | :59:30. | :59:35. | |
history, it does not favour Hewett and Reid. This is the tenth occasion | :59:36. | :59:38. | |
they've met and they've only won twice. One of those twice was here | :59:39. | :59:44. | |
last year so it was a big one. But the bulk of the numbers asked -- are | :59:45. | :59:52. | |
stacked for the French. That was also when Alfie was growing into his | :59:53. | :59:56. | |
new-found status as he was coming up into the world rankings from the | :59:57. | :00:01. | |
juniors. He could probably take off of those away. | :00:02. | :00:09. | |
It reminded me, going back to coaching, our world team cup, like | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
the Davis Cup, we have coaches on court and one of the think they say | :00:16. | :00:27. | |
is wouldn't it be more interesting if they were able to change tactics | :00:28. | :00:28. | |
in the singles? Great tennis, he's got it back! Oh, | :00:29. | :00:59. | |
a disappointing end to what was the point of the match so far. The work | :01:00. | :01:07. | |
Reid did! Look at this. Get that back, he's right on the back fence. | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
Great pushing. However, the net result is break | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
point. They have won the game of patients. | :01:16. | :02:08. | |
I was just thinking, which one, because they started getting a bit | :02:09. | :02:09. | |
tentative. Houdet tried a big forehand and it | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
didn't come off. Quite a big game, this. Hewett and | :02:18. | :02:58. | |
Reid it need to take advantage of this point. | :02:59. | :03:10. | |
Well played. Saw off a break point. Won the game point. | :03:11. | :03:30. | |
We remain on serve. If you're just joining us, it's the men's | :03:31. | :03:41. | |
wheelchair doubles final at Wimbledon, we were interrupted by | :03:42. | :03:42. | |
rain for three hours. This is Gordon and Alfie's chance, I | :03:43. | :04:21. | |
think. They know that Peifer can be new -- he can be changeable and he | :04:22. | :04:28. | |
can make mistakes. Well, how significant might that be? | :04:29. | :05:09. | |
They've got the break of serve in this deciding set. | :05:10. | :05:23. | |
Their respective armies are in full cry. Maybe lots of people watching | :05:24. | :05:31. | |
this back home, maybe in their chairs, thinking, I quite fancy a | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
bit of wheelchair tennis, what do they do, where do they go, how easy | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
is it to take up the sport? Really easy, just go down your local tennis | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
Centre. There are hubs as well, you can get hold of the tennis | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
foundation, they've got a big website. There's lots of chairs in | :05:48. | :05:56. | |
centres and coaches. You can just get started. It's exciting, the | :05:57. | :06:04. | |
crowd! That's how I got started, I went down to my local tennis Centre | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
and said, I want to play tennis. There are so many more opportunities | :06:12. | :06:12. | |
now. You don't have to have one of these | :06:13. | :06:26. | |
nifty chairs, you can use -- leave your day chair at the side of the | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
court and these chairs are available for you, so if you fancy it, you | :06:33. | :06:34. | |
know what to do. That was in, surely? The one called | :06:35. | :07:00. | |
it. That's a very good challenge, is it? Its way in. | :07:01. | :07:08. | |
Going to have to do some training on that. The quality of the challenging | :07:09. | :07:18. | |
has fallen some distance short of the quality of the tennis. To be | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
fair, we don't have a Hawk-Eye in most of the other tournaments so | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
they're getting used to it. I think you're being very kind! | :07:28. | :07:50. | |
These are the moments for which Alfie Hewett has worked so hard, for | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
the sports psychologist to help him, to calm the nerves, he's been in big | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
situations like this before. French Open champion a month ago on the | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
close at Roland Garros, fully focused. | :08:06. | :08:51. | |
Quite a big period of the match, this. The middle of the third set. I | :08:52. | :09:01. | |
think Alfie and Gordon can get on top of the French pair, they have a | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
good chance. I almost said good serve. | :09:07. | :09:25. | |
Starting to wonder if we're going to do this again, if we're going to win | :09:26. | :10:14. | |
it together again. That was a big game. If you look at the French, | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
they fade in and out. The British duo can keep the pressure on. | :10:20. | :11:16. | |
Alfie wasn't taking any chances on his overheads this time. | :11:17. | :13:19. | |
Wow, that's what you can do playing tennis on wheels. Longest rally in | :13:20. | :13:27. | |
the match, 33 shots. Look at this daisy cutter. Skimming the top of | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
the net. The ball didn't come up off the grass, that's why he couldn't | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
really get under it. Full court play, full credit to them. | :13:39. | :13:52. | |
That's is strong mentally from Stephane Houdet as much as anything, | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
holding onto his service game. It's heating up a bit, isn't it? This is | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
where we are, out on Court number three, up the hill. On Court 17, for | :14:04. | :14:11. | |
the quarterfinals and the semifinals. They've moved to one of | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
the grand show courts near the millennium building. It holds a | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
couple of thousand. It was full first thing this morning before the | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
rain came and the finals began on number one and centre. Very healthy | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
population still, largely by folk who are not entirely neutral! | :14:33. | :14:41. | |
Mums and dads, aunties, uncles, brothers and sisters, and coaches. | :14:42. | :14:52. | |
They are all trying to stay calm from a British perspective for now | :14:53. | :15:02. | |
because Hewett and Reid have the break of serve. More people are | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
coming into the stadium to get a view of wheelchair tennis at its | :15:07. | :15:17. | |
best. Potentially two games away. It is a big game to hold for Reid. | :15:18. | :15:31. | |
You can see they are positive. Hewett is trying to upset the rhythm | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
by coming in and out. Gordon Reid lost the use of his legs | :15:37. | :15:57. | |
just before his 30th birthday. He had a disease that affects the | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
spinal-cord and he was paralysed for six months. | :16:01. | :16:13. | |
Once he regained some movement he began to play the sport initially | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
just to keep fit. Then they realised he was pretty good at it and now he | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
is winning Wimbledon titles. You can see the French heads going | :16:24. | :16:44. | |
down a little bit. It is not going their way. It is going the British | :16:45. | :16:46. | |
way. That is exceptional from Peifer. | :16:47. | :17:17. | |
Strong wrists. Oh, missed it. Confusion in the | :17:18. | :17:54. | |
French camp, that is why. They are nearly there. | :17:55. | :18:07. | |
Houdet and Peifer have worked so hard and played so well to make this | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
final a spectacle. I think we will see Hewett and Reid | :18:12. | :18:32. | |
pressing a bit more to elicit some mistakes from the French. | :18:33. | :18:54. | |
The French pair have been together now for over 100 matches, ten years. | :18:55. | :19:03. | |
They are not giving up yet. Not by a long chalk. Not when you have | :19:04. | :19:11. | |
someone of the ability of Stephane Houdet flying around the net. They | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
will push this pair to serve it out because they can put pressure on the | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
serve. They will need at least one more | :19:18. | :19:41. | |
game before we work out who the Wimbledon champions will be. Where | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
were you the most nervous, Peter, when you were winning your | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
Paralympic medals? Five of them and ten Grand Slam titles. When were you | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
most nervous? The first round, the semifinals. It is all or nothing | :19:58. | :20:04. | |
essentially. If you win, you are in the final. The reality comes in the | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
final. And then the very last game serving for the match. That is when | :20:11. | :20:19. | |
you have to focus so much. It becomes tunnel vision. You have to | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
exclude everything and pick the spot where you are going to serve. | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
Because you are choosing, you are deciding, where the ball is going | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
and in a way where it is coming back. You need to think of two | :20:36. | :20:46. | |
shots. They are being roared on by a big support. Alfie Hewett and Gordon | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
Reid have enjoyed calling themselves Wimbledon champions over the last | :20:52. | :20:52. | |
year. It is interesting how the nerves | :20:53. | :21:28. | |
fluctuate between each pair. Depending on what the score is, the | :21:29. | :21:38. | |
nerves build and then they deflate. It has been an advantage in this | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
final so far. Absolutely, sometimes it is good to be behind. Then the | :21:46. | :21:47. | |
pressure comes off. He will be looking for a big serve | :21:48. | :22:03. | |
because he has got nothing to lose now. | :22:04. | :22:31. | |
Communication. That is why you hit the ball down the middle. It is so | :22:32. | :22:40. | |
effective. Both of them were doing backhand. Normally you would say it | :22:41. | :22:42. | |
is the forehand. That is a ripper. That is what he | :22:43. | :23:24. | |
has got to do. He has got to take the ball by the horns and use his | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
chair and his body and go for it. Be aggressive and not passive. | :23:32. | :23:42. | |
Oh, dear. Stephane Houdet raised his game at the time he needed to. They | :23:43. | :24:00. | |
also went a bit passive. They did not go for the win. But that is | :24:01. | :24:07. | |
often what happens when you are serving for a match. | :24:08. | :24:15. | |
It will be a third set tie-break if it goes to 6-6. | :24:16. | :24:27. | |
The pressure is off Hewett and read now. It would be nice for them to | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
break back. Oh, he has missed it. Houdet has | :24:33. | :25:03. | |
missed his little drop volley. Oh, that is just brilliant from | :25:04. | :25:34. | |
Alfie Hewett who is firing again. That is what they want. That | :25:35. | :25:42. | |
forehand crosscourt. It flashed past the front of Houdet. | :25:43. | :26:01. | |
You could hear the crash and that was Houdet's chair coming down onto | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
the ground. Great chair control. Unlucky, | :26:07. | :27:26. | |
though. Wow. Isn't that the nerves of steel by the Frenchman? I suspect | :27:27. | :27:33. | |
I was not the only one who forgot to breathe during the rally. Still | :27:34. | :27:35. | |
another break point. It was long. I do not think these | :27:36. | :28:07. | |
challenges are going to improve percentage-wise. They cannot have | :28:08. | :28:17. | |
many challenges left. It's good, solid tennis. He thought | :28:18. | :29:19. | |
he was going to go for the usual forehand but he headed into the | :29:20. | :29:23. | |
trams. But play. I was just saying to myself, come on | :29:24. | :29:45. | |
Alfie Hewett, rip a backhand top-spin, and he did. He eyed it up | :29:46. | :29:52. | |
and he went, wash! In moments like that, he's been the best player on | :29:53. | :29:56. | |
the court. If it was a highlight reel, he would beat providing most | :29:57. | :29:58. | |
of the shots. The extra pace with Hewett again on | :29:59. | :30:29. | |
his forehand, made Houdet overcook it. Karen Ross on her feet. She's | :30:30. | :30:37. | |
been with Gordon Reid for a decade or so now. She was with Andy Murray | :30:38. | :30:46. | |
went he was growing up in Dunblane. She knows what this moment might | :30:47. | :30:47. | |
mean. Oh, he's got it! He has got it and | :30:48. | :31:12. | |
the family are little bit excited! Well, they've been here before. | :31:13. | :31:41. | |
Sure, it's brilliant. That's why we watch it, that's why we play, that's | :31:42. | :31:48. | |
why we love sport. They absolutely have loved being champions. A couple | :31:49. | :31:56. | |
of weeks ago, Gordon Reid added MBE to his name on the back of that | :31:57. | :32:03. | |
Paralympic medal, met the Queen in Edinburgh. Alfie Hewett has been | :32:04. | :32:06. | |
French Open champion. But this is where it started for them 12 months | :32:07. | :32:10. | |
ago on these courts, at this place, at Wimbledon. It's really defined | :32:11. | :32:24. | |
them as a partnership. Gordon Reid's girlfriend in the white dress | :32:25. | :32:29. | |
leading the applause. And again, one game. But we know how tough that can | :32:30. | :32:39. | |
be sometimes. This time, it will be on the serve of Gordon Reid. | :32:40. | :33:01. | |
That's a good omen, isn't it? And miscommunication by the French | :33:02. | :33:07. | |
again. And Hewett and we'd take the first point. | :33:08. | :33:30. | |
That's the pressure of the double faults, not surprising. So much at | :33:31. | :33:37. | |
stake. Calling yourself Wimbledon champion. Not going to have anything | :33:38. | :33:46. | |
in out left! -- any fingernails left! | :33:47. | :34:06. | |
The right shot for Gordon, hit it right at the wheels of Peifer and he | :34:07. | :34:15. | |
got a short ball and he could put that away really easily. | :34:16. | :35:16. | |
Two championship points. To defend the title. | :35:17. | :35:58. | |
Celebrations in the standard at a bit premature. It looked it but | :35:59. | :36:05. | |
Peifer was way too fast there and guided it between me two British | :36:06. | :36:07. | |
players. Still another match point. And a reminder that if this goes to | :36:08. | :36:39. | |
6-6, where it entering a tie-break, just like last year to decide who | :36:40. | :36:40. | |
the champions are. Two championship points have come | :36:41. | :37:06. | |
and gone. Now there's one more. People can barely watch in the | :37:07. | :37:23. | |
commentary box. Do a big serve, that's what I'd do! | :37:24. | :37:43. | |
Especially for that, go big. They're being careful, quite rightly. | :37:44. | :38:27. | |
Thing is, you can't pick it. It keeps swinging, the momentum keeps | :38:28. | :38:33. | |
changing. The pressure keeps changing on each player. | :38:34. | :38:58. | |
And we're into a tie-break. And hats off to Peifer and Houdet. Under | :38:59. | :40:38. | |
enormous pressure. Made sure that just like last year, this men's | :40:39. | :40:45. | |
doubles final will be decided in the most domestic of fashions. -- | :40:46. | :40:52. | |
dramatic of fashions. The French are serving first as well which gives | :40:53. | :40:57. | |
them a slight advantage. The championship points came and went | :40:58. | :40:58. | |
for the British. Fabulous reach by Alfie Hewett | :40:59. | :41:52. | |
there. Maybe outfoxed Houdet. He does keep pulling out the big | :41:53. | :42:18. | |
forehand and backhand when they really, really need it. Could not | :42:19. | :42:24. | |
get much tighter! There is the first mini-break in | :42:25. | :42:57. | |
this tied deciding tie-break. That was wide of the centreline. I | :42:58. | :43:23. | |
don't think we've got one right, yet. And the trend continues. | :43:24. | :43:31. | |
Your heart goes out to Stephane Houdet. Not a great time to | :43:32. | :43:51. | |
challenge, tie-break, second serve, changes your with and your | :43:52. | :43:52. | |
smoothness. -- changes your rhythm. Just gone off the boil a little bit, | :43:53. | :44:22. | |
Gordon. CROWD: ??CAP NEXT come on, boys. | :44:23. | :44:56. | |
Their coach is off his feet. Karen Ross next door is offering support, | :44:57. | :45:02. | |
the crowd are offering support. They used as support me through my | :45:03. | :45:10. | |
trials and tribulations as well. A fantastic reach by Hewett. He has | :45:11. | :45:54. | |
been a little superstar over the last half an hour. He is the one | :45:55. | :45:56. | |
driving them forward now. They have had championship points | :45:57. | :46:33. | |
before. They have got four more of them. | :46:34. | :47:18. | |
Gordon and Alfie can afford to be positive. They can afford to take a | :47:19. | :47:26. | |
couple of risks. They have a couple of spare points. Be aggressive. | :47:27. | :47:55. | |
They have done it. They have done it again. Hewett and read. Alfie and | :47:56. | :48:12. | |
Gordon, Wimbledon champions again. Amazing. Amazing scenes. | :48:13. | :48:20. | |
How good was he? Gordon Reid, the Paralympic champion, the Paralympic | :48:21. | :48:44. | |
gold medallist, alongside the Paralympic silver medallist. They | :48:45. | :48:48. | |
have another 12 months of being able to call themselves Wimbledon | :48:49. | :48:54. | |
champions. How about that? Unbelievable, it is fantastic. As | :48:55. | :49:02. | |
Gordon was pointing to Alfie again, similar to their match last year. | :49:03. | :49:09. | |
When Alfie is hitting those backhand shots, it puts pressure on the | :49:10. | :49:15. | |
opponents. He lifted them up in that tie-break. Glorious. Let's not | :49:16. | :49:22. | |
forget the work that the coaches put in. The back room teams. I am not | :49:23. | :49:29. | |
entirely sure the official steward should be doing that. There you go, | :49:30. | :49:34. | |
any semblance of neutrality thrown out of the window. It has been that | :49:35. | :49:40. | |
kind of day. Brilliant, absolutely fantastic. I work for Stephane | :49:41. | :49:46. | |
Houdet as well, one of the great men of this sport. He has contributed to | :49:47. | :49:52. | |
wheelchair tennis for so long. He is a fabulous ambassador. This is an | :49:53. | :49:57. | |
exhibition of wheelchair tennis for everyone. We see it all the time and | :49:58. | :50:10. | |
we have been pushing the boundaries. These four players are marvellous. | :50:11. | :50:19. | |
The talent is incredible. The president of the French tennis | :50:20. | :50:23. | |
Federation is amongst those getting the autographs. Look at Alfie | :50:24. | :50:34. | |
Hewett's face. I think they knew how close they came. Who wants the | :50:35. | :50:42. | |
sweatband of a Wimbledon champion? I hope he gets those free. That is | :50:43. | :50:48. | |
where the sport has changed! You laid the foundations for this, | :50:49. | :51:03. | |
Peter. It is just brilliant. One of the wonderful things as well seeing | :51:04. | :51:09. | |
those kids get their autographs, we are of a generation were watching | :51:10. | :51:12. | |
somebody played tennis in a wheelchair was something new for us, | :51:13. | :51:17. | |
something we had to get used to, something we learned about. For this | :51:18. | :51:22. | |
next generation watching people playing tennis in wheelchairs is | :51:23. | :51:28. | |
commonplace, that is what happens. Absolutely and also the history of | :51:29. | :51:32. | |
disability and the changes in society for various things. This is | :51:33. | :51:42. | |
the norm. In my daily life I can do everything you can do, I can play | :51:43. | :51:45. | |
tennis in the same as everyone else, it is just that I am sitting down. | :51:46. | :51:51. | |
Ladies and gentlemen, the trophies will be presented on court to the | :51:52. | :51:54. | |
winners and the runners-up of the wheelchair doubles. Please welcome | :51:55. | :52:02. | |
to court David Rollinson, the member of the committee of the management | :52:03. | :52:06. | |
of the Championships and deputy president of the LTA. | :52:07. | :52:18. | |
Firstly, this year's runners up from France, Stephane Houdet and Nicolas | :52:19. | :52:23. | |
Peifer. And now the 2017 Wimbledon champions | :52:24. | :53:03. | |
from Great Britain, Gordon Reid and Alfie Hewett. | :53:04. | :53:08. | |
Let's grab a work with our champions. Alfie, how good is it to | :53:09. | :54:00. | |
come here and defend your title? It is absolutely amazing and to do it | :54:01. | :54:08. | |
in such a close battle as well against the French. They fought for | :54:09. | :54:12. | |
every single point even when they were 5-3 down. They made a great | :54:13. | :54:16. | |
match of it. Congratulations to them. It was a terrific match in | :54:17. | :54:24. | |
terms of quality and as Alfie said, Gordon, the fight from Stephan and | :54:25. | :54:31. | |
Nicholas, they saved four match point in the end and they put you | :54:32. | :54:35. | |
under pressure. They do not like doing it the easy way that is for | :54:36. | :54:39. | |
sure. I would like to thank them for the way the match was played, in the | :54:40. | :54:46. | |
best spirit possible. And look at this crowd, listen to it. You guys | :54:47. | :54:53. | |
are amazing. I have been playing wheelchair tennis for 12 years and | :54:54. | :54:56. | |
never once did I think we would fill a stadium out in Wimbledon like | :54:57. | :55:01. | |
this, especially as the women's singles final was happening on | :55:02. | :55:06. | |
Centre Court. I hope you enjoyed the match and thank you for the support. | :55:07. | :55:11. | |
I do not think there will be a single person here who did not enjoy | :55:12. | :55:15. | |
it and who was not applauding every shot of the near three hours of | :55:16. | :55:19. | |
action, spread over a longer than that because of the rain delays. How | :55:20. | :55:24. | |
tough was it in the closing stages of the third set knowing you were | :55:25. | :55:28. | |
that close to retaining the title to go through and do it? When you have | :55:29. | :55:33. | |
four match point and they saved them all and you have to go into a | :55:34. | :55:38. | |
tie-break it is quite tiring and you have to restart and go again. We did | :55:39. | :55:43. | |
a good job of going out there and having no regrets and just going for | :55:44. | :55:46. | |
it and playing instinctively and that is what we did in the end. It | :55:47. | :55:50. | |
is one of the best tie-breaks we played. You have got a whole section | :55:51. | :55:58. | |
of family, friends, supporters, coaches. What would you like to say | :55:59. | :56:08. | |
to them? They have been there for us ever since the start of our | :56:09. | :56:12. | |
journeys, especially my guys back over there. And the coaches over | :56:13. | :56:17. | |
there and everyone else is spread out around the court, it is great to | :56:18. | :56:21. | |
experience this with them and celebrate with them. There will be | :56:22. | :56:26. | |
some watching, like little Cameron who is ten years old, who wants to | :56:27. | :56:31. | |
follow in your footsteps. What do you hope next for wheelchair tennis? | :56:32. | :56:38. | |
What do you hope that this and having it on Court the can now | :56:39. | :56:43. | |
propel you to do? That is what it is all about. And last year the sport | :56:44. | :56:48. | |
has grown massively, especially in this country. The more opportunity | :56:49. | :56:53. | |
we have on this stage to showcase the sport, the more chance we can | :56:54. | :56:57. | |
inspire young people to pick it up and it can have an impact on their | :56:58. | :57:02. | |
lives as well. Hopefully we can peep people in the sport and keep going | :57:03. | :57:06. | |
on the Centre Court may be in a couple of years. Well fed and well | :57:07. | :57:14. | |
played. To our champions once again, Gordon Reid and Alfie Hewett. | :57:15. | :57:31. | |
They speak so well and they played so well as well. It was immensely | :57:32. | :57:39. | |
exciting. I mentioned little Cameron who is sitting there behind, because | :57:40. | :57:43. | |
he wants to be the next Alfie Hewett. What an inspiration those | :57:44. | :57:50. | |
guys are. The thing about disability sport, this is about professional | :57:51. | :57:53. | |
people playing the best sport they possibly can and it shows what they | :57:54. | :57:58. | |
can do. They have now grabbed the union flag and Gordon and Alfie are | :57:59. | :58:02. | |
celebrating with their trophy. They have come through 6-7, 7-5, 7-6. The | :58:03. | :58:10. | |
French pair saved four match point. It was a thrilling match and they | :58:11. | :58:14. | |
thoroughly deserved their victory. I cannot tell you what a joy it is to | :58:15. | :58:18. | |
be here in front of such a large crowd applauding high-quality | :58:19. | :58:24. | |
tennis. Well done to them. Coverage continues on BBC One of the mixed | :58:25. | :58:27. | |
doubles final. Goodbye. | :58:28. | :58:33. |
