- Brit ‘speechless’ after win over Martín de la Puente
- Hewett had previously lost in 2022 and 2023 men’s finals
Alfie Hewett secured an emotional maiden wheelchair singles title at Wimbledon after a comprehensive 6-2, 6-3 victory over Spain’s Martín de la Puente to complete a career grand slam.
Hewett had experienced disappointment in the 2022 and 2023 singles finals at the All England Club. However, the British star erased the memories of his defeat on Court One to Tokito Oda last year with a sublime display of hitting to delight a pumped up home crowd with a long-awaited singles success in SW19.
