Day 14: Skupski and Harrison claim first Grand Slam title together

Britain's Neal Skupski and American Christian Harrison were crowned men's doubles champions in Melbourne - marking their first Grand Slam title together since joining forces at the beginning of the year.

The British, American duo upset home favourites Jason Kubler and Marc Polmans 7-6(4), 6-4 in an hour and 50 minutes on the Rod Laver Arena.

It was a strong start for Skupski and Harrison, who were competing in just their second tournament together. The sixth seeded duo broke the Australian wild cards in the sixth game to surge to a 5-2 lead, before the Australians lifted their level in front of their home crowd.

Kubler, a former Australian Open men's doubles champion, exchanged baseline blows with Harrison and eventually recovered the deficit as the American sent a forehand wide.

The Aussie's made the faster start in the opening set tie-break but Skupski and Harrison produced the perfect response - reeling off five of the next six points to take a one set lead.

The British, American duo carried that momentum into the second where they sealed an early break in the third game and remained dominant on serve throughout, winning 80% of points behind their first serve.

Despite the pressure of serving for his first major title on his shoulders, Harrison showed no signs of nerves as he clinically closed out the win on their second championship point with an 11th ace of the match.

Matthew Knoesen finished as runner-up for the second day in a row as British interest in the Australian Open came to a close on Saturday, but the young Brit was still able to look back with pride on a ‘special week’ for his Grand Slam debut.

Knoesen, aged just 13, finished top of the round-robin singles draw after remaining unbeaten in three matches across Wednesday and Thursday, including a 6-3, 6-4 victory over Belgian and junior world No.1 Alexander Lantermann.

However, Knoesen was unable to repeat that performance on Saturday, as the Lantermann was quick out of the blocks in Saturday’s final, putting unrelenting pressure on Knoesen’s serve before claiming victory 6-0, 6-2.

Knoesen was also runner-up in Friday’s boys’ doubles final alongside Australia's Arlo Shawcross, after losing out to fellow Brit Lucas de Gouveia and Lantermann 6-2, 6-3.

Reflecting on his debut in a junior Grand Slam tournament, Knoesen said:  “Congratulations to Alex. You sensed our last match and came back and absolutely just flipped the switch and you showed us why there’s that No.1 next to your name on the board.

“Thank you to the organisation for making this happen. I said it yesterday, but you raise the bar so high and today you did it again. Thank you for making this such an amazing tournament and for making this such a special week for me. “
