Past British success in Eastbourne
Virginia Wade is the only British player to have won the singles title in Eastbourne back in 1975, when she defeated Billie Jean King 7-5, 4-6, 6-4 in the final.
Wade also finished runner-up in 1974 and 1976 but lost both finals to American Chris Evert.
She also shared the women’s doubles title in 1976 after her final match with Olga Morozova against Evert and Martina Navratilova was abandoned in the second set due to rain.
Jo Durie and Anne Hobbs finished runners-up in the 1983 women’s doubles and a year later, Durie lost in the final again alongside Ann Kiyomura of the USA.
Since the introduction of the men’s event in 2009, there have been eight British men’s doubles title winners: Colin Fleming (2012), Ross Hutchins (2012), Dom Inglot (2014), Luke Bambridge (2018), Jonny O’Mara (2018), Neal Skupski (2024), Julian Cash (2025) and Lloyd Glasspool (2025).
