British qualifier Arthur Fery managed only two games as he fell to new world number one Alexander Zverev in a straight-sets quarterfinal defeat on Friday.
The match, played on October 30, 2026, saw Zverev assert his dominance after recently ascending to the top of the ATP rankings. Fery, competing in his first quarterfinal at this level, showed glimpses of resistance but ultimately succumbed to the German's superior firepower.
Zverev's victory extends his winning run and solidifies his position as the world's top-ranked player, while Fery can take encouragement from reaching the last eight of a significant tournament.
