Top seeds Todd Woodbridge and Jonas Bjorkman retained their Wimbledon men's
doubles title with victory over Julian Knowle of Austria and Nenad Zimonjic of
Serbia in the final.
Australian Woodbridge, the most successful doubles player in history, and
Swede Bjorkman triumphed 6-1 6-4 4-6 6-4 over the 16th seeds on court one.
It was 33-year-old Woodbridge's ninth men's doubles title at Wimbledon,
breaking the 100-year-old record of the Doherty brothers, Laurie and Reggie.
Woodbridge, who won his first six titles at Wimbledon with fellow Aussie Mark
Woodforde in 1993 and the last two with Bjorkman, has no intention of hanging up
his racket just yet.
"Right now, my game is good enough to keep playing," he said. "You are a
long time retired. I'm certainly not retiring today.
"It was my dream of mine as a kid to be able to play here and to say I've
been able to win more of these titles at this event than anyone in the history
of tennis makes me proud.
"It feels great. I knew it was possible, I just had to stay focused to get
the job done. To get through today was a great performance. I feel like I played
one of my best matches."
