British number five Arthur Fery recorded the “best result” of his career as he beat Adrian Mannarino to keep home hopes alive in the HSBC Championships at Queen’s.<\/b><\/p>\n
The world number 140 reached his first ATP Tour quarter-final with a 7-6 (9-7) 6-4 victory over the veteran Frenchman.<\/p>\n
The 23-year-old wildcard needed treatment for a nosebleed at the start of the second set but kept his focus to wrap up victory on Andy Murray Arena.<\/p>\n
Fery was ranked 461 when he upset 20th seed Alexei Popyrin on the opening day of last year’s Wimbledon, but said his win over Mannarino was better.<\/p>\n
“It’s special to be playing in London where I grew up and in front of all these British tennis fans,” the British number five told BBC Sport.<\/p>\n
“This is the best result of my career so far. It’s not been easy, there have been lots of ups and downs so I’m happy to get through.”<\/p>\n
He was the last Briton left in singles after Cameron Norrie lost to fourth seed Alejandro Davidovich Fokina on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Asked about having to cope with a nosebleed, Fery said: “It happens to me quite often. I’m used to it.<\/p>\n
“I don’t really know why it happens. Maybe nerves. Sometimes tiredness, the heat. I don’t know. It happens here and there.”<\/p>\n
Fery, who beat fellow Briton Toby Samuel in the first round, will face seventh seed Francisco Cerundolo on Friday after the Argentine demolished American Jenson Brooksby in straight sets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
