A spot in the next round is at stake on Friday, when Alexander Zverev goes up against Arthur Fery in the Wimbledon semifinal. Alexander Zverev has won 6 in a row and 9 of the last 10 overall. Arthur Fery is rolling — 6 straight wins, 8 of 10 in recent play.
There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.
Hold strength tells the story — 73.6% versus 68.9% on first-serve points in Zverev's favor. The edge belongs to Zverev — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.
