Harri Heliövaara and Henry Patten defeated Max Purcell and Jordan Thompson in the final, 6–7(7–9), 7–6(10–8), 7–6(11–9) to win the gentlemen's doubles tennis title at the 2024 Wimbledon Championships.[1] [2] [3] They saved three championship points en route to both players' first major title in men's doubles. Heliövaara became the first Finnish man to win the title. Patten became the third British man in the Open Era to win the title after Neal Skupski (in 2023) and Jonathan Marray (in 2012).[4] Heliövaara and Patten became the first unseeded team to win the title since Vasek Pospisil and Jack Sock in 2014.
Wesley Koolhof and Skupski were the defending champions,[5] but chose not to defend the title together. Koolhof partnered Nikola Mektić, but lost in the second round to Charles Broom and Arthur Fery. Skupski partnered Michael Venus, but lost in the semifinals to Heliövaara and Patten.[6]
The pair of Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos regained the ATP No. 1 doubles ranking by reaching the semifinals, after current No. 1 Matthew Ebden lost in the second round. Marcelo Arévalo and Joe Salisbury were also in contention for the No. 1 ranking at the beginning of the tournament.
This tournament marked the final Wimbledon appearance of two-time singles champion, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and former singles world No. 1 Andy Murray. Partnering his brother Jamie Murray, he lost in the first round to Rinky Hijikata and John Peers.[7]
