Oh dear, I hope that Arthur gets a second wind.

Also I have to say that I'm so glad that Lloydy and Bouncy aren't commentating.

Fabulous from Arthur ! This reminds me of Emma here in 2021 when she had her great Wimbledon run before the US.
Not saying Arthur can do that, but hes just stepping up against top players each round.

I thought he had gone in that fourth set. How does he do it? Allez Arthur!.

If he gets through this we will have to rename Arthur Houdini!

L16: (WC) Arthur Féry WR 114 defeated (WC) Grigor Dimitrov (BUL) WR 146 by 7-5 3-6 4-6 6-4 7-6(10-7) in three hours & 55 minutes

He didn't seem at all overawed by finally finding himself playing on the grandest stage in world tennis, or if he was, he hid it well! Imperturbable - bouncing back like a rubber ball & learning to work the partisan crowd! I feel a bit sorry for Dimi, but...
