Britain’s Jordanne Whiley and partner Yui Kamiji won a fourth successive Wimbledon women’s wheelchair doubles title as they saw off Marjolein Buis and Diede de Groot 2-6 6-3 6-0.

Whiley and Japan’s Kamiji went a set down as the Dutch second seeds started confidently on court three.

But 25-year-old Whiley and Kamiji, 23, recovered to take the second and did not lose a game in a decisive third to extend their winning run at Wimbledon.

They receive £12,000 in prize money.
