Plus: Texas football racks up more top-end recruits
For the first time since 1982, a Texas Longhorns player has won a Grand Slam event.
Four-year Texas alum Lloyd Glasspool and doubles partner Julian Cash won the Wimbledon men’s doubles championship over the weekend, according to a Sports Illustrated report.
From SI:
“He was the first Longhorn to win that title since Wilmer Allison in 1930, the first to win a title in a Grand Slam since the duo of Steve Denton and Kevin Curren did so in the 1982 U.S. Open. The duo has spent less than one full calendar year together and have now won one of tennis’s most prestigious events. They defeated David Pel and Rinky Hijikata in straight sets (6-2, 7-6).”
