Ben Shelton will make his career debut at the ATP Finals this year.
The American secured his spot in Turin on Thursday after defeating Andrey Rublev at the Rolex Paris Masters, 7-6 (6), 6-3, which put him into the quarterfinals in the French capital for the first time.
He’s the sixth player to qualify for this year’s ATP Finals, joining Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev and Taylor Fritz at the star-studded event that runs from November 9th to 16th.
And with Fritz qualifying yesterday, this is also the first time that two Americans have qualified for the ATP Finals in the same year since 2006, when Andy Roddick and James Blake both did it.
More to come…
