Ben Shelton cruises into U.S. Open quarterfinals

Ben Shelton cruised past Stefanos Tsitsipas in straight sets Sunday to reach the U.S. Open quarterfinals.

Shelton reached the fourth round after surviving a much messier night against Denis Shapovalov, whom he defeated 7-6(3), 6-7(5), 6-3, 6-4, in the third round, a match he described as "nowhere near my best." The match didn't start until 10:45 p.m. on Friday. Shelton committed 54 unforced errors and struggled with his serve in the second set.
