WIMBLEDON, LONDON — Ben Shelton faces his toughest test yet when he meets world No.1 Jannik Sinner for a spot in the Wimbledon semifinals.
The American will need to record his first top-10 win of the year against the Italian if he’s to deny Sinner a second semifinal appearance at SW19, having last reached that stage two years ago.
Much of the outcome of this match could depend on Sinner’s elbow injury. He had an MRI scan yesterday and only underwent a light practice session on hard courts.
Sinner was two sets down in his fourth-round match before opponent Grigor Dimitrov had to retire, and Shelton will be hoping that’s his get-out-of-jail-free card already used up this tournament.
Shelton has already seen off one Italian in Lorenzo Sonego in his last match but is up against the No.1 seed, who has beaten him five times and lost just once when the two have previously met.
