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.

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.

Ben Shelton could not produce a stunner in the Wimbvledon quarter-final. The American faced world no. 1 Jannik Sinner and suffered a 7-6 6-4, 6-4 defeat in two hours and 19 minutes.
