Wimbledon champions already have plans for £680k prize and plot boozy celebrations

Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool lifted their first Grand Slam title at Wimbledon on Saturday, becoming the first all-British men's doubles champions in 89 years. The No. 5 seeds had never won a Major before, either separately or together, and they were delighted to hear that they got to split £680,000 in prize money.

The Brits have been on a tear this grass season. They lost the final in 's-Hertogenbosch but are now on a 14-match winning streak after lifting titles at Queen's, Eastbourne and Wimbledon. After an impressive few weeks, they're already planning to celebrate tonight.

After winning their home Grand Slam tournament, Cash and Glasspool were asked how they'd be spending their money - and they answered for each other.

"Lloyd after round two was trying to figure out his mortgage numbers, so I'm hoping he's going to go through that again," Brighton-based Cash said.

And Glasspool was keen to hear exactly how much prize money they will receive, being informed that they got to share £680k.

"Don't pretend like you didn't know," Cash told his partner. "I mean, for me no idea at all, but yeah, obviously amazing to win that kind of money this year.

"For me, it's already been great on that front, better than any year I've had. Yeah, doesn't necessarily change anything for us. We've got more goals this year, and I think this will obviously give us an awful lot of confidence, and a lot of teams will fear us for the rest of the season."

While Glasspool, who is set to marry his fiancee Sophia next year, is thinking about his mortgage, Cash is keen to upgrade his motorbike.

"I know he's buying a new motorbike, by the way. It's a short answer to what you said, yeah," Glaspool said of his opponent.

Cash explained: "I've just been looking. That's all I'll say. I mean, I have one. I've had it for lay long time, and I've been using it to get to Queen's, Eastbourne, and here a little bit. It's been good for the traffic, so I might have a look at that."

They could also spend the money on some grand celebrations, after friends and family travelled from across the country and around the world to watch them capture their biggest career title.

Asked how they'd be marking the occasion, Glasspool said: "That's a good question."

Cash added: "I mean, Lloyd loves a drink! No, I mean, at this point, kind of as Lloyd said at the start, I don't think it's really sunk in. I haven't even seen my family yet.

"Honestly, not sure. But, yeah, we'll definitely celebrate. We've got 50-plus people here that have come to watch us today, half of them on the hill watching on the screen. Yeah, I'm sure we'll celebrate properly."

And the celebrations may well already be underway. This year, Wimbledon bosses moved the doubles final to start at 1pm, before the singles final at 4pm, and Glasspool thought it was the right move for a few reasons.

"I think that was an amazing move by Wimbledon, especially with doubles normally being a lot shorter than singles. People can fill up towards the end as well and then kind of get ready for the main event, so to say," he explained.

"If you had it after, a lot of people would kind of just watch the singles, there's quite a big gap in between, and go home. This way I think both of the matches will be full, and it gives us all day to celebrate. I prefer it that way."
