LONDON, July 9 : Novak Djokovic's age-defying pursuit of tennis immortality continues on Friday with a Wimbledon semi-final against Jannik Sinner, although that blockbuster duel has been challenged unexpectedly for top billing.
LONDON: There’s also an American angle to the French-born British player who grew up five minutes from the All England Club and has reached the semifinals as a wild card at Wimbledon. Arthur Fery honed his game by playing three years of college tennis for Stanford University, where he was a two-time All-American. Now he’s the first former Stanford player to reach the last four at Wimbledon since John McEnroe’s eighth and final Wimbledon semifinal in 1992, when McEnroe was beaten by eventual champion Andre Agassi. Stanford University coach Paul Goldstein flew in for the occasion and was watching inside Center Court when Fery eliminated French Open runner-up Alexander Zverev in straight sets in the quarterfinals on Wednesday. “Arthur always displayed an emotional maturity and a wisdom beyond his years,” Goldstein told The Associated Press. “When I worked with him at school, it always felt like it was as much of a peer-to-peer relationship as it was coach-to-student relationship with a 25-year age gap between us.” As a sophomore in 2021-22, Fery became Stanford’s first No.
Top-ranked Jannik Sinner and 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic highlight the 96-player list for this summer's National Bank Open, in Montreal, one year after several top players pulled out of the ATP 1000 tournament.

LONDON, July 8 : British wildcard Arthur Fery continued his unlikely Wimbledon adventure with a trip to the semi-finals where he faces German second seed Alexander Zverev, who also wasted no time reaching uncharted territory at the All England Club on Wednesday.
LONDON, July 8 : If it were a movie script, Arthur Fery's remarkable Wimbledon adventure would probably never have made it to the big screen because it seemed too far-fetched to be believable.
LONDON, July 8 : Taylor Fritz said he was blindsided and briefly in a state of panic when a chronic right knee problem flared up early in his straight-sets Wimbledon quarter-final defeat by second seed Alexander Zverev on Wednesday.
