MELBOURNE: Finland’s Harri Heliovaara and Briton Henry Patten fought back from a set down to win the Australian Open men’s doubles title on Sunday, defeating Italians Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori 6-7(16), 7-6(5), 6-3.

The victory gave Heliovaara and Patten their second Grand Slam crown after they triumphed at Wimbledon last year, while for the Italians it was more heartbreak after losing both the Australian and the French Open finals last year. The Italian third seeds started strongly, breaking serve in the opening game, and after failing to serve out the first set at 5-4, they prevailed in a thrilling tiebreak to win an 87-minute opening set.

Sixth seeds Heliovaara and Patten came out on top in a much shorter tiebreaker to force a third set, and after an early break allowed them take a 3-0 lead, they saved three break points to hold serve and win after over three hours on court. Agencies
