LONDON—Sam Querrey will go into the hard-court season looking to build on his quarterfinal showing at Wimbledon, where he defeated Novak Djokovic in the third round and reached his first Grand Slam quarterfinal before falling to Milos Raonic in four sets.
Querrey is scheduled to play next week's grass-court event in Newport, followed by a full hard-court schedule.
"I'm excited for the hard-court season,” the world No. 41 said. “I like playing there. I feel like I've got a lot of momentum. The first half of the year has been, you know, great for me. I'm just going to try to keep going. Put my foot down, collect more points.”
Querrey won Delray Beach and reached two other ATP semifinals before Wimbledon.
The 28-year-old viewed Wimbledon as an encouraging tournament for Americans, with John Isner and Jack Sock reaching the third round and Nottingham winner Steve Johnson making it to the fourth.
"I think it's been a great two weeks for the men's side, especially, and the women pretty much always have at least Serena going deep,” he said. “But yeah, all in all I thought it was great. To have two guys in the third round, a guy in the fourth round, a guy in the quarters, we don't do that too often. So it was nice."
Querrey is expected to return to the Top 30 next week.
