Arthur Fery, the last British player remaining in the Wimbledon singles draw, is set to compete in the third round on Saturday. The 22-year-old faces Belgium's Zizou Bergs on Court 18 at the All England Club, carrying the hopes of the host nation.
Match Time and Broadcast Details
The third-round showdown is tentatively scheduled to begin at approximately 1:40 PM BST. However, fans should monitor the order of play closely, as two earlier matches on Court 18 precede Fery's encounter, which may push the start time back.
Domestic viewers can watch the action across the BBC. Coverage on BBC One runs from 12:20 PM to 5:15 PM, with a break for news and weather, resuming at 5:30 PM. BBC Two's coverage starts at 11:00 AM and continues until 5:00 PM. Fery's match is expected to be featured on one of these channels, depending on concurrent matches. Streaming is available via BBC iPlayer.
Fery's Journey and Prize Money
Fery has already secured a significant payday by reaching the third round, earning at least £185,000 in official championship prize money. This marks his best performance at Wimbledon, having previously only advanced to the second round. He defeated Damir Dzumhur and Otto Virtanen en route to this stage.
The pressure on Fery is immense as the last British singles player standing. According to tournament officials, he carries the hopes of the entire host nation as he fights to extend local representation into the second week.
Next Round Opponent
The winner of Fery vs. Bergs will face a challenging fourth-round match against either Grigor Dimitrov or Matteo Berrettini.
