John McEnroe - 1984. John McEnroe was the first player to complete the Queen’s-Wimbledon double when he won his fourth and final Queen’s title in 1984 with a 6-1, 3-6, 6-2 win over fellow American Leif Shiras. To do the double, McEnroe needed to beat fierce rival Jimmy Connors in the Wimbledon final. He didn’t just beat his compatriot but pummelled him submission, winning 6-1, 6-1, 6-2 to successfully defend the title and win Wimbledon for a third and final time. Getty Images
Andy Murray – 2016. A record five-time champion at Queen’s Club, so it is only fitting that he achieved the double the year that made him the tournament’s most successful player. It was far from straightforward for the British No 1, though. He trailed the big-serving Canadian Milos Raonic by a set and 3-0 in the final, before earning successive breaks to take control of the match. Murray went on to win 6-7, 6-4, 6-3. He would then meet Raonic again a few weeks later in the Wimbledon final, this time cruising to a 6-4, 7-6, 7-6 win for his second title at the All England Club. Getty Images
Rafael Nadal – 2008. Rafael Nadal claimed his first and only Queen’s Club title in 2008 after defeating Novak Djokovic 7-6, 7-5 in the final. A couple of weeks later, the Spaniard was involved in one of the greatest Wimbledon finals of all time when he outlasted Roger Federer 6-4, 6-4, 6-7, 6-7, 9-7 for the second of his three titles at the grass court grand slam.

Lleyton Hewitt – 2002. Lleyton Hewitt is one of just three players – along with John McEnroe and Andy Roddick – to win the Queen’s title three years in a row. In the last of those three in 2002, Hewitt defeated local favourite Tim Henman 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 in the final. Two weeks later, the Australian lived up to his pre-Wimbledon favourite tag to cruise to the title, beating David Nalbandian 6-1, 6-3, 6-2 for his solitary title at the All England Club. Hewitt would win Queen’s one more time, in 2006. Getty Images
Pete Sampras – 1999. The only player to achieve the Queen’s-Wimbledon double twice, Pete Sampras claimed his second Queen’s title in 1999 when he defeated Tim Henman 6-7, 6-4, 7-6 in the final. Heading in to Wimbledon, the American was the overwhelming favourite having won the past two editions as well as five of the previous six titles. Sampras would defeat compatriot Andre Agassi in the 1999 final 6-3, 6-4, 7-5 to win the sixth of his seven Wimbledon titles. Allsport
Pete Sampras – 1995. The first year Pete Sampras achieved the double. The American defeated Frenchman Guy Forget in the Queen’s final, 7-6, 7-6, before making his way to Wimbledon where he was the two-time defending champion. “Pistol Pete” then made it three in a row at the All England Club by beating Germany’s Boris Becker 6-7, 6-2, 6-4, 6-2.

Boris Becker – 1985. The summer of 1985 has secured its place in the tennis history books thanks to a 17-year-old Boris Becker. The German teenager won his first top-level singles title at Queen’s when he thrashed American Johan Kriek 6-2, 6-3 in the final. A fortnight later, Becker became the youngest ever male grand slam singles champion at 17 years and 227 days, the first German to win a major and the first unseeded Wimbledon champion after beating American Kevin Curren 6-3, 6-7, 7-6, 6-4 in that year’s final. He defended the Wimbledon title the following year and won his third and final trophy in 1989. Getty Images
