Former Florida tennis standout [autotag]Ben Shelton[/autotag] came into the 2024 edition of Wimbledon a 14th seed and managed to last three rounds before making his exit.
On Sunday, top-ranked Jannik Sinner defeated his fellow 22-year-old to move on to the quarterfinals, while the UF alumnus heads home with his head held high. While Shelton was eliminated in straight sets, he fought hard — especially in the final set – but simply did no have enough to upend the best player in the world right now.
Shelton came in having played every day of the tournament due to rain while also playing the maximum 15 sets through three matches, so it is difficult to rule out fatigue as a contributing factor.
Below is a look at highlights from Ben Shelton’s fourth-round loss to Jannik Sinner at Wimbledon 2024.
