Jannik Sinner sure didn’t play like someone dealing with an injured right elbow Wednesday, using terrific serving and his usual booming forehand to dismiss 10th-seeded Ben Shelton 7-6 (2), 6-4, 6-4 and earn a second appearance in the Wimbledon semifinals.
Tuesday at Wimbledon will feature a quarterfinal between No. 1 seed Jannik Sinner and No. 10 seed Ben Shelton in the first men's singles match of the day.
Dimitrov most recently retired from the first round of the French Open with a thigh injury while holding a 6-2, 6-3, 2-6 lead over American Ethan Quinn. He retired from Wimbledon in the fourth round in 2024 with an abductor tear. He trailed Daniil Medvedev, 5-3, in the first set at the time of that injury.
The top-seeded Italian, dealing with an apparent arm injury, had dropped the first two sets to Grigor Dimitrov before the Bulgarian was forced to retire because of injury.
All eyes are on Jannik Sinner as he tries to redeem his narrow French Open loss with a victory at Wimbledon. His rise in prominence and rivalry with Carlos Alcaraz have increased scrutiny over his dating life.
