THE ALL ENGLAND CLUB, LONDON — There are only two players who have been able to knock Ben Shelton out of Grand Slams this year: Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. That’s good news and bad for Shelton, who exited Wimbledon in the quarterfinals Wednesday afternoon as Sinner sent him home, 7-6 (2), 6-4, 6-4.

The 2025 Wimbledon marks Sinner's fourth consecutive year at the tournament. He's currently the No. 1 men's singles player worldwide. He defeated Grigor Dimitrov on Monday, after Dimitrov was injured and retired from the match. Sinner also faced an elbow injury, so Wednesday's match will be the first time he's played since his MRI.

Italian Jannik Sinner advanced to the semifinals at Wimbledon 2025 after defeating American Ben Shelton. The grueling match lasted nearly 4 hours after starting at 9:30 A.M. Eastern Time on July 9, 2025.
