Arthur Fery has become the surprise story of Wimbledon this year.
The British wildcard is the last home player standing in the singles draw after producing a remarkable run to the quarterfinals. This includes a dramatic five-set victory over former world No. 3 Grigor Dimitrov.
A former Stanford University standout, Fery's deep run at Wimbledon this year came as a relief for home fans. While 18 of his compatriots crashed out in week 1, Fery remains the last man standing.
The 23-year-old will now face ninth seed Flavio Cobolli as he looks to extend the biggest run of his pro career.
Yes. Fery was born in Sèvres, France, but grew up in Wimbledon, Greater London.
He chose to represent Great Britain, despite being eligible to play for both France and Great Britain.
He has climbed steadily through the British tennis circuit and is now enjoying a breakthrough at his home Grand Slam.
Arthur Fery is coached by Jeroen Benard, who has played a key role in guiding the youngster through injuries and into the best stretch of his pro career.
Earlier, he also worked with Craig Veal and Benoît Foucher while progressing through the British tennis system.
Fery's mother, Olivia Féry (née Gravereaux), is a former professional tennis player who competed at the 1991 French Open and represented Hong Kong in the Fed Cup.
His father, Loïc Féry, is a French businessman and president of French football club FC Lorient.
Yes. Fery's run to the Wimbledon quarterfinals has already secured enough ranking points to move him inside the ATP Top 100 for the first time in his career.
Current projections place him around world No. 63, with the possibility of climbing even higher, depending on how far he advances in the tournament.
Regardless of what happens against Cobolli, Wimbledon 2026 has transformed Fery from an under-the-radar wildcard into one of Britain's brightest tennis prospects.
