Arthur Fery’s Fairytale Wimbledon Run Continues to Semifinals

The British wildcard, who needed an invitation just to enter the tournament, has become the talk of the Championships.

British wildcard Arthur Fery has continued his remarkable run at Wimbledon, defeating ninth seed Flavio Cobolli 6-4, 7-6(4), 6-0 on Centre Court to reach the semifinals. The 23-year-old, a two-time All-American at Stanford who grew up roughly a mile from the All England Club, needed a wildcard invitation just to enter the tournament.

Fery’s run has captured the attention of home fans and dignitaries alike, with Britain’s Queen Camilla among those watching from the royal box during his quarterfinal win. World No. 114 heading into the tournament, Fery now finds himself one win away from a Wimbledon final.
