Apart from that, Australian Open quarter-finalist, Ben Shelton felt proud of his achievements. He stated, “Pretty pumped. Time to keep building.”

He has become the youngest American male player to reach any major’s quarterfinals since Andy Roddick at the US Open in 2002. Furthermore, he also halved more than half of his previous ranking to world no. 44. His previous ATP ranking was 89.

Besides that, we have Taylor Fritz in the Top 10 holding the rank of world no. 8. And then we have the Australian Open semi-finalist, Tommy Paul at world no. 19., and the son of the former tennis star Petr Korda, Sebastian Korda at world no. 26.

Korda, particularly, had a disappointing end to his incredible run in the tournament. He, unfortunately, had to retire mid-match in the quarter-finals of the Australian Open due to a wrist injury.
