Arthur Fery Is Knocked OUT of the US Open in First-Round Nightmare
Musetti used varied serving and steady pressure to beat Fery in 2 hours, 9 minutes, setting up a second-round match with Dane Sweeney.
- On Tuesday, British tennis player Arthur Fery lost his US Open debut at Grandstand Stadium, falling to Italian seed Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3, 7-5.
- Fery arrived in New York after reaching his first ATP Tour final in Winston-Salem last week, but Musetti tested the Briton with serves exceeding 130mph and clever court variation.
- Musetti dominated early play, capitalizing on Fery's errors including consecutive double faults that cost the Briton the opening set, though Fery briefly rallied to level the match at 5-5.
- After missing the French Open and Wimbledon with a thigh injury, Musetti secured victory and will face Australian wildcard Dane Sweeney in the second round.
- "Key for sure was my attitude today," said Musetti, who noted feeling "fear" when serving at 5-4. Fery's historic summer run, which included a Wimbledon semi-final, concludes.
