Wimbledon 2025: Ben Shelton fumes as play suspended while serving for match

When the American Ben Shelton played Rinky Hijikata in Wimbledon in the second round match, he was suspended because of bad light because he was about to serve for the match.

After winning the first two sets 6-2 7-5, the 10th Seed Shelton finished the third place in the third place 5-4 and potentially progressing in a few minutes.

However, when the time was 21:30, and when the sunlight became fading, the referee in the two courts announced that there would be no more games that evening, and that Shelton would be too much to disappoint.

Two times the Grand Slam semifinals, 22 years old, questioned the authorities angrily about the decision, which means he had to return to prove that he could only be a game on Friday.

In addition to Shelton’s discomfort, Hijikata had previously lost three match points in the service of Hijikata, and at the same time, the game could be suspended before the start of the third set.
