The 21-year-old American tennis champ, Ben Shelton is on a roll right now. He is living his best life and playing the most amazing tennis of his career at the moment. He had a terrific journey at the US Open, as he was able to reach the semifinals. And even at the Shanghai Masters, he is killing it with his wins one after the other. But despite his amazing performance on the court, there is one thing that disappointed his father about the match.

And it comes as no surprise because he is being coached by his talented father, Bryan Shelton. Bryan makes sure to be there in the stands and support his son in all of his matches as he plays his best. Recently, at Ben’s match in the Shanghai Masters, Bryan was seen cheering for his son from the stands.

Ben Shelton’s father gets disappointed about an important aspect of the match

Ben Shelton is having a fantastic season at the moment. He is playing against some of the toughest players in tennis and trying to learn and play at the same time. He has also had some big wins in the US Open and is now giving his best at the Shanghai Masters as well.

Seeded number 9, Ben is being coached by his father Bryan. During Ben’s match against Jaume Munar, Bryan was in the stands, continuously supporting and cheering for his son. With every point Ben earned, Bryan supported him with words of affirmation like, ‘’Inspired’’, ‘‘Good job’’, “Way to fight”, “Good hustle”, and more.

But there was one thing that Bryan did not like and it was the music being played during the match. What he said was, “What kind of music they got going here? Trying to put us to sleep? I am still not over my jetlag yet.” Since Ben was winning points here and there, Bryan probably wanted upbeat music to play in the background.
