Alfie Hewett Eyes First Wimbledon Singles Title as he Prepares to Defend Doubles Crown

Alfie Hewett is gearing up for another shot at his first Wimbledon wheelchair singles title as he prepares to defend his doubles crown alongside partner Gordon Reid. The British tennis star, who has already accumulated an impressive 27 Grand Slam titles in singles and doubles combined, is determined to add the prestigious Wimbledon singles title to his collection.

Hewett has come close to clinching the singles title in the past two years, reaching the final but falling short to his opponents. Despite these setbacks, he remains optimistic about his chances this year and believes he is getting closer to achieving his goal.

In an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, Hewett expressed his desire to win the Wimbledon singles title and his determination to improve on grass, a surface that he admits was not his strongest earlier in his career. With more grass tournaments being introduced in recent years, Hewett sees this as an opportunity to hone his skills and make a strong push for the Wimbledon title.

Hewett and Reid, who are the reigning Wimbledon doubles champions, have already started the year on a high note by winning their fifth consecutive Australian Open title. As they prepare to defend their Wimbledon doubles crown, the duo is focused on continuing their success on the grass courts.

Tennis fans can catch all the action from over 80 tournaments a year, including the US Open, exclusively live on Sky Sports Tennis. With a new home for tennis on Sky and NOW, fans can enjoy more live matches and in-depth coverage of the ATP and WTA Tours.
