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.

Ben Shelton had high praise for Jannik Sinner after losing to the Italian in the Wimbledon quarterfinals on Wednesday.

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.
