H2H & Match Fundamentals<\/p>\n
After James Duckworth\u2019s <\/a>second set retirement, Arthur Fery <\/a>is into his maiden ATP final in Winston-Salem and will now face third seed Ignacio Buse <\/a>for the title.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Tale of the Tape \u2013 Key Stats (Last 52 Weeks)<\/p>\n Fery will need to have a very good serving day as Buse has played some efficient tennis on return so far this season.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Playing styles and prediction<\/p>\n Buse has had a breakthrough season playing some efficient and consistent tennis on all surfaces. The Peruvian claimed his first ATP title in Hamburg the week before Roland Garros and will be aiming to do the same this week in Winston-Salem. A consistent baseline game mixed with big serving makes Buse a threat and he will aim to boost his US Open hopes with a title in Winston-Salem.<\/p>\n Fery will need to serve well and will be looking for the angles to force errors from Buse\u2019s game. The backhand will be key for Buse as he looks to dominate the baseline exchanges. If Fery can play the match on his terms and be proactive then the Brit has every chance of claiming a first ATP title of his career.<\/p>\n Prediction: Fery in three sets.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n How to Watch\/Follow ATP Winston-Salem 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Tony Fairbairn Arthur Fery [4] def James Duckworth 6-4 1-2 RET Fery v Ignacio Buse [3] |…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":36433,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[6646,21158,1549,450,28],"class_list":["post-59799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-arthur-fery","tag-atp-winston-salem","tag-ignacio-buse","tag-james-duckworth","tag-tennis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59799"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59799\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36433"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n H2H:<\/td>\n Arthur Fery (WR 37)<\/td>\n Ignacio Buse (WR 36)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n Tournament Previous Best<\/td>\n N\/A<\/td>\n N\/A<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n 1st Serve %<\/td>\n 62<\/td>\n 60.7<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n Service Games Won %<\/td>\n 80.4<\/td>\n 76.3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n Break Points Saved %<\/td>\n 58<\/td>\n 61.2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n 2nd Serve Return Points Won %<\/td>\n 50.7<\/td>\n 49.6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n Break Points Converted %<\/td>\n 40.6<\/td>\n 46.6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n ![](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Connected-Clubs-Graphic.png\"\/)
