Arthur Fery has reached the semi-finals of Wimbledon, facing Alexander Zverev after victories at the tournament as a wild card. Initially ranked No. 114, Fery's run included a notable win over Grigor Dimitrov and a dramatic match against French Open finalist Flavio Cobolli. His progress mirrors Emma Raducanu's unexpected triumph at the US Open in 2021. Fery aims for his first Grand Slam title, needing two more wins to achieve this feat and continue the resurgence of British tennis.
