Francisco Cerundolo defeated Arthur Fery 7-6 (7-1) 3-6 6-4 in the Queen's quarter-finals on a sweltering day in London. The match lasted two hours and 39 minutes. Fery, ranked 140th in the world, had reached the last eight by beating Adrian Mannarino for the first time at ATP Tour level.
He also defeated Toby Samuel in the first round, dropping just two games. Cerundolo, ranked world number 27, will next face Brandon Nakashima in the semi-finals. Nakashima defeated top seed Alex de Minaur in the quarter-finals.
Fery led by a break in the third set before Cerundolo broke back and secured victory on Fery's serve. The Argentine had earlier taken a painful hit at the net when Fery's volley struck his throat. The 23-year-old Fery received a main-draw wildcard for Wimbledon, which begins on 29 June.
He attended Stanford University on a scholarship and his mother Olivia was a professional tennis player. Fery's father Loic owns Ligue 1 football club Lorient. Fery described his win over Mannarino as the best result of his career.
Fery's loss means there are no Britons remaining in the singles draw at the Queen's ATP 500 event.
