When it seems that everything has already been seen in the world of tennis, there is always something new that surprises everyone. This is what has happened in this Wimbledon 2026, specifically in the match between Arthur Fery and Damir Dzumhur, where the young Briton claimed victory in four sets (3-6, 6-2, 6-2, 6-1) after two hours and forty minutes of play. So far, everything is normal, however, Fery has left a very curious image.
This is why Arthur Fery wore earplugs during his match against Damir Dzumhur at Wimbledon 2026
At one point during the match, the British player put in earplugs during an exchange. This was because the Bosnian player was constantly complaining about two decisions made by the chair umpire, Gregory Allensworth, as reported by inews: "Did you see the 'let'? Did you hear the 'let'? Are you so bad that you can't hear, and everyone heard it? I'm telling you that you're bad. You made a mistake." Then, on another ball that hit the net, he lashed out at Fery: "You know it's a let," to which the British player replied, "I have to play, if I stop, I lose the point anyway."

The Bosnian player did not stop and asked to speak with the supervisor to complain once again about the referee: "Do you understand? We're the ones playing, he's the one making mistakes. You saw what happened. Can we change it somehow, please? It's very difficult to play with someone who doesn't do their job properly. It's very difficult to play, I assure you. "I'm sure they know, I don't know if they play tennis or not, I don't know how important this is for each player, but here they must be at the highest level." So, these constant complaints from Dzumur led Fery to put in the earplugs to stop listening to him.
