Woodbridge & Bjorkmann are the defending champions at SW19

Two heads are better than one is a principle that Todd Woodbridge has put to use with unparalleled success on the tennis court.

The 33-year-old made his name as one half of "The Woodies" alongside fellow Australian Mark Woodforde, sweeping to five straight Wimbledon men's doubles titles between 1993 and 1997.

Now Woodbridge is back with Swede Jonas Bjorkman with his sights set on another record - a ninth men's doubles title at Wimbledon.

"I don't think about that when I come into the tournament," Woodbridge told BBC Sport.

"I know it's out there but I'm just concentrating on trying to win the title again.

"We just need to 'guts it out' because I think my form is good.

"And I feel everyone that's left in the tournament we can beat."

"The Woodies" were certainly an unbeatable force when it came to doubling up in the men's game.

By the time their 10-year partnership ended with Woodforde's retirement four years ago they had amassed 11 Grand Slam titles and the 1996 Olympic crown.

Did it ever cross Woodbridge's mind to quit doubles at the same time?

"I knew that Mark was going to retire and so I actually asked Bjorkman at Wimbledon in 2000 if he'd be interested in playing with me," said Woodbridge.

"I thought of all the people out there he was the guy I could win major championships with.

"Woodforde and Bjorkman are at different ends of the spectrum in terms of their playing style.

"But I actually enjoyed that challenge because I wanted to show I was able to play with other guys."

Woodbridge and Bjorkman quickly forged a successful partnership.

The pair have claimed four Grand Slams crowns and are top seeds at Wimbledon.

And in his own right Woodbridge holds the record for the most career doubles title, winning 80.

After 26 years in the game is there anything left for the upbeat Australian to achieve?

"I've won all the majors and everthing there is to win but I want to win more," Woodbridge admitted with a smile.

"The Grand Slams are the reasons for me being out there. They're what you dream of as a kid.

"I'm up to 22 Slam titles, 16 of them are men's doubles - John Newcombe has 18 so there's a record I can go after.

"I'm not a big believer in saying I'm going to retire because I think it hurts your performance.

"And I don't want to do one of those laps around the world and wave goodbye because I don't think anyone is interested.

If you let the doubles game die then singles will become very robotic Todd Woodbridge

"When I know I can't win the big tournaments anymore that's the time for me to go.

"But you know I'll always be involved in tennis - I'll be playing somewhere."

Woodbridge intends to play out this season before making any decisions about his future on the competitive circuit.

The 33-year-old, who has recently moved back to Australia after spending a decade in Florida, has already given up the singles game, quitting two years ago.

But Woodbridge, known for his on-court agility and quick hands, remains passionate about the doubles game.

"Doubles is fun - the speed of the ball, the reflexes, the quick-hits means it can be more entertaining than singles," said Woodbridge.

"We need to be careful that we don't let the doubles game die.

"It's an integral part of the game because younger players can learn shots and be more creative.
