Shelton Loses In Shanghai Masters Opener, Misses Chance To Push ATP Tour Final Claim
ATP Live Race To Turin: Ben Shelton lost to former World No. 7 David Goffin in the second round at the Shanghai Masters 2-6, 4-6 on Friday and missed the opportunity to boost his ATP Tout Final hopes on his return to tour on Friday.
Shelton, who was competing for the first time since he was forced to retire during the third round at the US Open in August due to a left shoulder injury, was slightly off the pace, committing 22 unforced errors to 11 from Goffin, who beat Carlos Alcaraz at the ATP Masters 1000 event in Miami earlier this year.
Goffin saved all three break points he faced against Shelton and leads the sixth seed 2-0 in the pair’s ATP Head2Head series. The 34-year-old, who is a two-time Shanghai quarterfinalist, plays Gabriel Diallo in the third round on Sunday.
