Shelton Survives Fonseca Test To Reach Montreal QF
Lexus ATP Head2Head: Defending champion Ben Shelton overcame the challenge of in-form teenager Joao Fonseca to book his place in the quarter-finals of the National Bank Open, defeating the Brazilian 6-3, 7-6(3) in a hard-fought fourth-round encounter.
The American, seeded fifth and ranked No. 10 in the ATP Rankings, was forced to dig deep in windy conditions after falling behind early in both sets. Shelton, however, responded each time to maintain his unbeaten run in Montreal this week and secure his 30th victory of the season.
“It was tough out there today and I competed well. It wasn't easy conditions to play in. I struggled to find my footing on a lot of balls, as did he. A lot of it just comes down to grit in a match like this. So to come through with a win against a really high-quality player like Joao is huge for me,” Shelton was quoted by ATP.
