Rising star Ben Shelton teamed up with compatriot McDonald to take down former doubles pairing number one Cabal and Farah in Acapulco 7-6(5) 6-4.
The Americans utilized their signature serve + forehand tactics to create a lot of problems for the Colombians who didn't find a solution for it. It was a very exciting match and Shelton and McDonald converted four of the eight break points they had in the match. It's a major upset because Shelton and McDonald never played together before but also Cabal and Farah are very good and experienced.
The rally in the second set form 2-4 down was a major one as they were able to escape in two sets. Check out some of the match below.

- Where is it written that athletes, entertainers... People in general... are mandated to keep looking at -- or even using [anti]Social Media? Public & private figures consistently complain and reveal their concerns about negativity and violence thrown at them -- yet they insist on participating. Avoid it, don't use it, don't read it. It's okay to occasionally look up at the World instead beating your eyes & thumbs to death on The Inventions out there.mandoist11-10-2026

- Let's not BS the general public -- Sabalenka started showing cracks in her game last season. Her losses and near-losses started at about the same time she began being distracted by Fame (constant Selfies, making TV commercials, magazine shoots, endless Social Media nonsense, etc., etc.) One would think even Saba could recognize the parallels with others who failed before her -- Raducanu, Giorgi, Bouchard to name a few.mandoist25-09-2026
