At Wimbledon on Friday, the tournament's most beloved underdog story reached its natural limit. Arthur Fery, the unseeded British player who had carried the hopes of an entire nation through an improbable run to the semifinals, was eliminated by Alexander Zverev — the German third seed whose experience and precision proved the difference between a fairy tale and a championship. With Fery's defeat, the dream of an all-British final at the All England Club dissolved, leaving behind the particular bittersweet quality of stories that almost came true.
