The Frenchman lost nine matches in a row ahead of the grass court season but produced a semi-final result to get back on track in \u2018s-Hertogenbosch. Mannarino loves the grass and his unique style of play causes problems to opponents as he searches for a fourth career quarter-final at Queen\u2019s Club.<\/p>\n<p>Fery will need to be aggressive on serve and will use the backhand to open up space on the court. Meanwhile Mannarino will use the dropshot to move Fery off the baseline and will use the forehand to use a mixture of depth and pace. This should be a big grass court test for Fery who will use this as an opportunity to build some confidence ahead of Wimbledon.<\/p>\n<p>Prediction: Mannarino in three sets. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>How to Watch\/Follow ATP Queen\u2019s Club 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Tony FairbairnArthur Fery [WC] def Toby Samuel [WC] 6-0 6-2Fery v Adrian Mannarino | H2H: First MeetingLONDON,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":741561,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[442],"tags":[101907,170599,266097,49,48,82,593,144330],"class_list":["post-741560","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tennis","tag-adrian-mannarino","tag-arthur-fery","tag-atp-queens-club","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-sports","tag-tennis","tag-toby-samuel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/741560","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=741560"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/741560\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/741561"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=741560"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=741560"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=741560"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
