Ferry Stuns Virtanen, Becomes Fourth British Wildcard into Third Round

Britain's 23‑year‑old wildcard Arthur Ferry recorded the biggest win of his career by overcoming Finland's Otto Virtanen 5-7, 7-6(3), 6-3, 6-3. After losing the opening set, Ferry rallied to claim the next three, joining an elite group of only four British wildcards to reach Wimbledon’s third round since 2000. The Princess of Wales made a brief appearance in the stands, but Ferry said the support of family and familiar faces in the crowd lifted his confidence. Recent strong form at grass events in Birmingham and Nottingham helped him enter Wimbledon on a high.
