  "account": "Wimbledon semi-finalist Arthur Fery was eliminated in the first round of the Paris Masters on Tuesday. Quentin Halys, a 30-year-old French player competing in the final ATP Masters 1000 event of the season, defeated Fery 7-6, 7-5. Both players held their serves in the first set, with Halys eventually winning the tie-break after saving two set points. In the second set, Halys defensively held off two break points before Fery saved one with an impressive lob. Halys then regained serve, forcing a tie-break, and ultimately won the match with a forehand winner and an ace, advancing to face seventh seed Frances Tiafoe. This loss marks Fery's first ATP 250 tournament defeat after an impressive Wimbledon run, and comes after a loss in the Winston-Salem Open final to Ignacio Buse in August.",
