Day four: Four Brits bid for main draw spots
Oliver Tarvet, Billy Harris and Max Basing have punched their tickets to the main draw after coming through their final qualifying matches.
Tarvet has enjoyed another stelar campaign, after coming through qualifying to reach the main draw at Wimbledon for the second year in a row.
He defeated Greece's Stefanos Sakellaridis 6-4, 6-2, 7-5 to book his place once again.
Tarvet recovered from a break down in the third set to get back level before reeling off the final four games on the bounce to secure victory.
He was then joined by Harris who pulled off a comeback win over China's Zhou Yi - winning 1-6, 7-6(2), 6-2, 6-3.
The Lexus Nottingham Open quarter-finalist produced a dominant display in the second set tie-break before breaking Yi four times across the third and fourth sets to progress to the main draw.
Basing had to fight through a gruelling five set epic against Switzerland's Remy Bertola, coming back from a set down to win 2-6, 6-4, 3-6, 7-5, 6-2.
It marks a milestone day for the 23-year-old who will now go on to make his Wimbledon debut next week.
Heather Watson came close to joining her compatriots but lost out in the final round to top seed Maria Timofeeva 3-6, 6-2, 6-1.
Heather Watson, Oliver Tarvet, Billy Harris, and Max Basing are all one match away from reaching the main draw of Wimbledon 2026.

The British star came back from a break down in the second set and faced two break points at 4-3 down in the third as she fought her way to victory.
Watson previously made the fourth round of Wimbledon back in 2022 and will look to seal her place in the main draw tomorrow against either Maria Tiomfeeva or Veronika Podrez.
Tarvet - who came through qualifying to reach the second round last year - defeated Alexis Galarneau 7-5, 6-2.
He will play Greece's Stefanos Sakellardis tomorrow for a spot in the main draw.
Harris knocked out Zsombor Piros of Hungary 6-4, 6-4, as he continues his bid to play at his third Wimbledon. Last year, the 31-year-old reached the second round for the first time in his career.
Meanwhile, Basing will be hoping to make his Wimbledon debut after knocking out Tom Gentzsch 7-5, 6-2 to set up a match with either Remy Bertola.
However, Dan Evans' professional singles career came to a close in the second round of qualifying after losing to Australian Tristan Schoolkate 7-5, 6-0. Evans will now turn his attention to the Wimbledon doubles main draw with Henry Searle.
Esther Adeshina was the first Brit in action on Wednesday morning, but lost in the second round of qualifying to France's Harmony Tan 6-2, 6-2.
Paul Jubb also lost out to world No.135 Tomas Barrios Vera 6-4, 3-6, 6-1.
