Ben Shelton defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-2, 6-3, 6-4 — US Open 2026 R16.
Ben Shelton and Stefanos Tsitsipas are level at 1–1 across 2 recorded meetings.
Every first serve Tsitsipas hit landed in, and it bought him nothing — no break points earned, no return games won in 13 tries — while Shelton held all 13 of his own and was never taken to a break point. The eighth seed broke in game 2 of the opener and again in game 3 of the third set, closing with 32 winners against 17 unforced errors. Having needed four sets in each of his first three US Open matches, Shelton took 1 hour 46 minutes to reach the quarterfinals.
