 | | Laurie, Little Do Laurie, or "Little Do," born Hugh Laurence Doherty, was the shorter, at 5-foot-10, younger, and probably better, of the Cambridge (Trinity College)-educated Doherty brothers who illuminated the tennis skies in their native England and at Wimbledon at the turn of the century. |
 | | Although Laurie lost the 1898 Wimbledon final to Reggie, 6-1, in the fifth, he won the title five straight times, beginning in 1902. |
 | | The Dohertys, who parted their dark wavy hair in the middle, also devised the more aggressive doubles formation of parting the pair, with the receiver's partner at the net, to be joined by the receiver. |
