Shelton lost the first set 6-3 against Italian Lorenzo Sonego, who is ranked No. 47 in the world, before taking the next three sets to advance to the first Wimbledon quarterfinal of his career. With victory, Shelton became the youngest American to go this far in the tournament since Andy Roddick in 2004.

Ben Shelton has reached his first Wimbledon quarterfinal — doing a round better than his father-turned coach, Bryan, did in 1994 — by beating Lorenzo Sonego 3-6, 6-1, 7-6 (1), 7-5.

It started when Shelton defeated Hungary’s Marton Fucsovics in straight sets to reach the Round of 16 on Saturday.
