MELBOURNE : American Ben Shelton put on a masterclass in powerhouse hitting to down local favourite Alexei Popyrin 6-3 7-6 6-4 in the Australian Open on Saturday to move into the last 16 of a Grand Slam for the first time in his career.
"I know I came from college tennis and I really thought it was rowdy there, but this stadium is something special," a grinning Shelton said. "Us Aussies, we stick together," De Minaur had said in a post-match interview after the home fans watched him beat Benjamin Bonzi at Rod Laver Arena. They could only look on in dismay as Popyrin soon lost his range and his unforced error count climbed, gifting Shelton the advantage before finding the net on match point to give the young American the win in exactly two hours.
