Gordon Reid made history when he won the first ever Wimbledon men's wheelchair singles title, his second victory of the weekend.

The 24-year-old Scot dropped his racket to the ground and raised his fists, a huge grin across his face, after beating the Swede Stefan Olsson in straight sets.

The partisan crowd chanted "Reid-o, Reid-o" as he served for Championship point, and after a shaky double fault they roared their delight when he won the final point.

Reid's supporters sang and chanted his name as he wheeled his way around the court, whirling a hair band around his head.

And there were emotional scenes as he embraced coach Karen Ross, who has been with him since he was a teenager.

After raising the winner's trophy for his victory - which earns him a £25,000 paycheck - Reid told the BBC: "To have an opportunity to play singles here is something I have dreamed of for a long time.

"It's amazing, and to come here and win it in front of the people I love and all my friends and family and coaching team and so much support is unbelievable. I am never going to forget this moment."

He laughed when presenter Clare Balding suggested he had brought an "Alice-band army" with him.

And he said he came to Wimbledon with two goals, and hoped his win would inspire other wheelchair users to realise their dreams.

He said: "If there's any kids with disabilities like I was at one stage, if they have been watching this and it can inspire them to take up tennis or another sport then that's really important.

"The second thing is to continue to break down barriers when it comes to disability and showcase the personality and the high performance of sport and not the disability.

"With the amount of coverage we have had this week and the amount of interest and the way people have enjoyed our sport, it has been a big milestone and hopefully we can build on that for the future."
