Arthur Féry’s tennis roots run deep.
His dad Loïc and mom Olivia Féry welcomed Arthur in Sèvres, France, on July 12, 2002. Loïc and Olivia share two other children: daughter Albane and youngest son Maxime.
Arthur isn’t the only tennis star in the family. Olivia is a former professional tennis player. She’s also a longtime member of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London, where she took Arthur to play tennis as a kid, per ESPN.
“It’s been a long time that I’ve lived in the UK,” Arthur told ESPN in July 2026. “I’ve spent a lot of time here. I train at the National Tennis Centre. The federation helped me lots. I feel completely British now. Maybe 10 years ago you ask me the question, it would be a bit different. Now I feel very British at heart.”
The family’s passion for sports goes beyond tennis. While Loïc is a wealthy French businessman, he is also the president of the French soccer team FC Lorient.

He landed a top position at France’s largest bank, Crédit Agricole, in the institution’s investment banking division at 33 years old, according to Forbes. In 2008, he established the credit investment firm Chenavari Investment Managers in London.
In 2009, Loïc stepped into the sports business world when he bought the French soccer team Lorient FC, per Forbes. He sold his ownership stake in early 2026, making Black Knight Football Club (BKFC) group the sole shareholder, according to The Associated Press. Loïc remains the club’s president and is a BKFC shareholder.

Arthur’s mom Olivia passed on her tennis genes. She played professional tennis in France and is a two-time International Tennis Federation (ITF) tournament winner, according to Wimbledon.
Olivia is also a member of London’s All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, a private members’ club where she has played tennis with Arthur since he was a kid, per ESPN.
They welcomed Arthur in France but raised him in England
Loïc and Olivia welcomed Arthur, their older son, in Sèvres, France, on July 12, 2002. Soon after, they moved to Wimbledon.
Arthur was raised alongside two younger siblings, sister Albane and brother Maxime. Maxime studies at Imperial College in London, where he also plays tennis, according to LinkedIn. Like Arthur, who attended California’s Stanford University, his sister Albane attended college in the United States, per her Wake Forest University team bio.
Growing up in Wimbledon, Arthur attended professional tennis matches in his hometown as early as age 7, per ESPN.

Loïc and Olivia have been spotted cheering Arthur on at many of his tennis matches. They watched Arthur win the Wimbledon quarter finals on July 8. That win made him the first wild card player to reach the semifinals in the tournament since Goran Ivanišević in 2001.
“That last game I felt emotions that I haven’t experienced before in my life, and I think it’s the same up there,” Arthur said of the match in an interview at Wimbledon, pointing to his family and friends in the crowd. “It’s unbelievable to share it with those guys.”
