Unreal, what a lad 

 

Shame Fritz couldn’t have taken more out of Zverev but that’s for another day

[HighPeakFox]

New British number one come Monday.

Defeating a top 10 player, recent slam finalist in a slam QF is very impressive… to do it that brutally and that calm.. was just ridiculous, unreal performance 

Well, Zverev will certainly be a couple of notches further up, and it's possible this might be a wild card flash in the pan performance, but for now all I'll say is that Murray would be proud of the standard of that performance against a tough opponent on Centre Court.

900 grand, a nice unexpected pickup

What a story.

 

Never keen when crowds get on someone’s back, but I hope they get in Zverev’s head on Friday.

at wimbledon?  Can't see that happening.

Fery has killed that

 

does he actually have any nerves?? Absolutely incredible

Yeah he looked liked he had been doing this for years, destroying top players on centre court… ridiculous just how calm he is.

100% he needs to bring that performance to the semi, does that he has a real chance 

[LCFCJohn]

Like others have said, he just seems ice cool, unfazed. A tough challenge coming on Friday though.

The Ferytale

[spacemunky]

Admittedly I don't watch as much tennis these days, but I hadn't heard of Fery until this tournament.

[Alf Bentley]

This must be the greatest moment for the Fery family since great-uncle Brian led his glam-art rock combo Roxy Music to glory with songs like Virginia Plain, Love is the Drug and In Every Dream Home a Heartache.

Nice surprise that. Impressive how Fery gets around the court and some fine shots

Been injured a lot but seems to be on the rise this year and only 23.

[Super_horns]

Yes Gauff  blew the chance to win but credit to Muchova particularly if she was carrying an injury.

 

Excellent final set and tense tie break .

Doesnt mean the son has any wealth though.

[leicsmac]

Critical tie break this imo. 

[leicsmac]

... and that's why Zverev is world no.3, the big game experience coming through. 

 

Fear for Fery now. 

[Super_horns]

Hopefully that tie break won’t affect his confidence too much .

[JonnyZeroFox]

Loose tie break from Fery, been playing those so well. But just too many errors. Well held here at the start of the second though 

[leicsmac]

From what it sounds like the crowd need to do more of a job here, give the guy more backing. 

[leicsmac]

Yeah, this is a bridge too far.
