About this person
Benjamin Todd Shelton was born October 9, 2002, and turned pro with a power baseline game that carried him fast. He broke through on the Masters 1000 level in 2025, taking the Canadian Open, then defended it a year later. September 2026 brought a career-high ranking of world No. 4 and a run to the US Open final, the deepest major result of his career so far. He added a doubles title at the 2026 U.S. Men's Clay Court Championships with Andrés Andrade and briefly cracked the top 70 in doubles. Seven ATP singles titles by his mid-twenties, all of it built on a serve and forehand that give him a real ceiling.
