Fery Denied Maiden ATP Title in Agonising Final Defeat Before US Open

  • Britain's Arthur Fery reached his first ATP Tour final at the Winston-Salem Open in North Carolina after opponent James Duckworth retired due to injury while trailing 6-4 2-1.
  • Fery's breakthrough follows a surprise run to the Wimbledon semi-finals in July, propelling the 24-year-old to a career-high ranking of 33 and overtaking Cameron Norrie as British number one.
  • Ignacio Buse, a 22-year-old from Peru ranked 36th, will face Fery in Saturday's final after defeating Benjamin Bonzi 6-2 4-6 6-1. Buse won an ATP 500 title in Hamburg earlier this year.
  • "I am really happy to be in the final," Fery said. Eight weeks ago the Briton was ranked outside the top 100; now he stands on the verge of his maiden ATP title.
  • Fery will face Italian 13th seed Lorenzo Musetti in the first round at the upcoming Open at Flushing Meadows in New York. Musetti reached the quarter-finals in New York last year.
