Ben Shelton pulled off a jaw-dropping upset at the US Open, defeating defending champ Carlos Alcaraz in a five-set thriller that lasted nearly four and a half hours and ended at 3:33 AM—the latest finish ever at the tournament. Alcaraz, who racked up over 50 unforced errors, still showed class, calling it a “smiling” battle with Shelton and praising the crowd’s energy. With this win, Shelton advances to face fellow American Frances Tiafoe in the semis—potentially setting up the first all-American men’s final since Andy Roddick in 2003. Meanwhile, Aryna Sabalenka battled through her own tough match to keep her title hopes alive, making for an electric, unpredictable ending to the tournament.
