Jannik Sinner vs Ben Shelton prediction

World number one Jannik Sinner advanced to the quarter-finals of Wimbledon after his opponent Grigor Dimitrov retired despite being two sets up against the Italian. Dimitrov was leading 6-3 7-5 2-2 when he pulled up with an injury to his right pectoral muscle. Sinner found it difficult to cope with the Bulgarian’s varied style during the match and looked out-of-sorts. He also suffered a nasty fall in the first game of the match and will have a scan on his elbow.

As long as he remains fit to continue, he will go up against Ben Shelton in the quarters. Shelton recovered from a poor start to defeat Lorenzo Sonego 3-6 6-1 7-6 7-5. The American upped his game towards the end of the third set to take a crucial lead in the match and then broke the Italian’s serve late in the fourth to seal a first quarter-final appearance at the All England Club.

Sinner leads the head-to-head 5-1 and has won their last five matches. He also beat Shelton in the round-of-16 at Wimbledon last year, winning 6-2 6-4 7-6. If the Italian is fit, he will be expected to make it through but Shelton is likely to have the Court One crowd on his side at times and will win plenty of free points with that serve of his.
