UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer publicly congratulated 23-year-old tennis player Arthur Fery after he defeated ninth-seeded Italian Flavio Cobolli on Centre Court, advancing to the Wimbledon gentlemen's singles semifinals. Fery is the first British wildcard entry to reach that stage in the tournament's Open era, a milestone also recognized by Princess Catherine and Queen Camilla, who watched from the royal box. Starmer posted his praise on social media, calling attention to Fery’s journey from wildcard to semifinalist. Fery now faces second seed Alexander Zverev in the semifinals on Friday and noted that his 24th birthday falls on the day of the men’s final.
