Britain's Arthur Fery plans to harness the home crowd's energy as he faces Alexander Zverev in the Wimbledon men's singles semi-final. Fery, a wildcard ranked 114, has made a surprising run to the last four, including overcoming Flavio Cobolli in the quarter-finals after winning consecutive five-setters.

Fery stated he will use the crowd's support to his advantage, particularly on Centre Court, to apply pressure to his opponent. Zverev, the French Open champion, acknowledged the anticipated atmosphere but expressed confidence in his ability to handle it, having experienced various crowd dynamics throughout his career.

Despite Zverev's status as a top player, Fery approaches the match with a free-swinging mentality, aiming to replicate his current form. He views the semi-final as an opportunity with nothing to lose, while Zverev respects Fery's game and his journey through the tournament.
