HELENSBURGH'S Gordon Reid will be back in action next week when he takes to the court in the ABN AMRO World Wheelchair Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam.

World number three Reid has has success at the hard court tournament in recent years, he claimed victory in the singles for the first time last year but picked up the doubles' crown in 2013, 2014 and 2015.

Last year's Wimbledon and Australian Open champion will be one of seven top 10 players competing in Holland, including the world's top six.

The Burgh ace goes into the tournament on the back of completing a career Grand Slam of men’s doubles wheelchair tennis titles after partnering Joachim Gerard of Belgium to win the Australian Open crown.

The Helensburgh ace got over the disappointment of his semi-final singles loss earlier in the week to claim a 6-3, 3-6, (10-3) win against Alfie Hewett and Argentina’s Gustavo Fernandez.

With Brits on either side of the net in the men’s doubles final, second seeds Reid and Gerard made a confident start and took a 4-0 lead before Hewett and Fernandez managed to recover one of the breaks against them.

After beating Paralympic champions and top seeds Stephane Houdet and Nicolas Peifer in their semi-final, Hewett and Fernandez made the early breakthrough in the second set, turning a 2-0 lead into a 5-2 advantage and forcing the match tie-break.

However, Reid and Gerard went through the last seven points of the match tie-break without reply to win their first Grand Slam title together.

Reid said: “I’m very happy to finish this Australian trip on a high after some disappointing results and performances at times. It was a last minute decision to play with Jo but one that has paid off.

“I don’t think any one of us played our best tennis in the final today, but we upped our level when it mattered in the match tie-break. It’s also a great feeling to complete the career doubles Grand Slam.”

Reid had previously won the Roland Garros and US Open doubles titles in 2015 and added the Wimbledon doubles crown to a second title in Paris in 2016.
