America’s tennis star Ben Shelton’s father and coach lived every moment of the match during the Shanghai Masters.
The 21-year-old is currently taking part in the ATP 1000 event in China where he has already booked his place in the round of 16 after defeating Russia’s Roman Safiullin with a score of 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.
During that match, Ben’s father and his coach had a mic at their disposal, and in a video posted on social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — they can be heard enjoying every moment of the action.
The current world number 20 is now set to face off against Italy’s Jannik Sinner in the round of 16 clash on Tuesday. It will be the first meeting ever between the players.
Shelton is often regarded as one of the best young male tennis players, currently playing in the circuit.
He has made a name for himself with some outstanding bit of display in the recently concluded US Open.
Shelton’s journey in the fourth and final Grand Slam of the year finally came to an end as he lost the semifinal to the current world number one Serbia’s Novak Djokovic in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2, 7-6.
