Two power hitters competing in a slugfest early transitioned into a calculated display of consistency from World No. 1 Jannik Sinner during Wednesday's straight sets win over Ben Shelton in the quarterfinals at Wimbledon.

Jannik Sinner has started his Wimbledon quarterfinal against Ben Shelton with a white arm sleeve over the right elbow he hurt in his previous match.

No. 1 Sinner had an unusual path to the quarterfinals at Wimbledon. The Italian won his first three matches in straight sets, but in his quarterfinal match, he just scraped by against Bulgaria’s Grigor Dimitrov. Sinner was down two sets against Dimitrov, but the Bulgarian was forced to retire from the match due to injury.
