Ben Shelton advances at US Open after late match against Carlos Alcaraz

Ben Shelton defeated Carlos Alcaraz in a five-set quarterfinal at the US Open on Wednesday, September 9. The match concluded at 3:33 a.m. ET, following a late start. During his post-match interview, Shelton mentioned his sister and best friend, but did not acknowledge Trinity Rodman, who was present in the stands. Rodman, a professional soccer player, responded to the omission on camera by asking about her status. Shelton, the tournament's No. 8 seed, is set to face Frances Tiafoe in the semifinal match scheduled for Friday, September 11. Due to potential scheduling conflicts, Rodman may miss the final match if Shelton advances and his game coincides with a Washington Spirit contest against the Boston Legacy.
