By IANS News August 17, 2026 • 10:34 AM View: 364

Daniel Merida Aguilar: Portuguese qualifier Jaime Faria stunned Ben Shelton at the Cincinnati Open, thrashing the American’s hope of back-to-back deep Masters 1000 runs.

Faria took advantage of a sluggish start from Shelton, who was competing in his first match since winning the Masters 1000 event in Montreal last week, and registered a 6-4, 6-4 win.

The win marks the first Top 10 win of Faria's career and also snapped Shelton's six-match win streak.
