Arbroath tennis player Jonny O’Mara has claimed his maiden ATP Tour title.
He and partner Luke Bambridge defeated fellow British pair Ken and Neal Skupski in the men’s doubles final at the Nature Valley International in Eastbourne.
O’Mara and Bambridge, both 23, had never won a match at ATP level prior to this week but, after beating top seeds Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah in the quarter-finals, they lifted the trophy thanks to a 7-5 6-4 triumph over the Skupski brothers.
It was a repeat of the result in the final of the Surbiton Challenger tournament earlier this month, which helped O’Mara and Bambridge break into the world’s top 100 for the first time.
