What a fabulous performance by Arthur to beat Dimitov and gain a place in the Quarter Finals At Wimbledon earlier today
A five set thriller,both Wild Card entries fantastic!
What a weekend for Engerland
Any chance of an announcement, white / black smoke. Only a few days until the boys return for training, with whom?

Great result and played well, although I was a feeling for the other chap when he had to wait8 mins for Fery to coma back out!
Seems a little wrong to me.
Anyone know why he went off for a long period?

Apparently known as a comfort break
Rather clever as a legit tactic by Arthur as he had just lost the second set
Allowed and apperently you get 5 minutes when you actually get to the changing rooms
It most probably disrupted Dimitov but was within the rules
A great result for King Arthur, how far can the 23 year old progress?
He is 24 on Finals Day surely ...?

Fery showed great character and fight to battle to the win.

Didn't know that but still felt for Dimitov - he was walking back and forth in the shade, like a caged big cat, for 8 or so minutes. He was on the up at that point too!

Nonetheless less, well done Fery on a hard fought win.

Arthur Fery, British Wild card entry wipes out the Italian & goes into the Semi - final

Another fabulous performance

Congratulations & well done King Arthur!

Stunning performance.

Thailand Mick · July 09, 2026, 12:36:36 AM

Fantastic performance, will have to make a step up now for the fairytale to become true with the players left. Will be cheering him on loudly.

Heard somewhere that he's French by birth ?

So he's French choosing to represent GB ?

The last wild card to reach the semis was Goran,who went on to win it in 2001.

So go on Count Arthur Strong,you can win it.

Dodgin · July 09, 2026, 08:23:08 AM

Straight three set win, who saw that coming, did help ease the tension. A young man datermind to make his own way.

could be only the third non seed to win it after Boris and Goran

Hopefully his friends and family can protect him
from the press. As i see the Cockroaches are already scuttling
around him and his family.

Born in Paris to French parents but was educated at Kings College in Wimbledon.

My son has just left Kings after completing his A levels a few weeks ago.

Neither my son nor I had even heard of Arthur before yesterday as we haven't really followed Wimbledon this year with the distraction of the WC and cricket.

He gave a great interview after yesterday's match. Definitely interesting that he chose to rep GB rather than France.

England thrashed India in the 3rd International T20 by a record margin, England Women reached another cricket WC Final, Fery's back on Centre Court tomorrow for his SF then England play Norway on Saturday.

What a great time to be a sports fan on these shores
