Atlanta-born Ben Shelton’s inspiring run at Wimbledon came to an end Wednesday at the hands of world No. 1 Jannik Sinner. Despite the loss, Shelton’s performance at Wimbledon was a significant milestone in his young career.

Sinner and Novak Djokovic earned their way into a star-studded men’s semifinal following their victories Wednesday.

THE ALL ENGLAND CLUB, LONDON — There are only two players who have been able to knock Ben Shelton out of Grand Slams this year: Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. That’s good news and bad for Shelton, who exited Wimbledon in the quarterfinals Wednesday afternoon as Sinner sent him home, 7-6 (2), 6-4, 6-4.
