Ben Shelton, a finalist at the U.S. Open, was eliminated in the third round of the ATP 1000 Shanghai Masters on Sunday after losing to Arthur Gea of France with scores of 7-6 (5) and 7-6 (3). Despite facing three match points when trailing 6-3 in the second-set tiebreaker, Shelton couldn't recover. In another third-round match, Karen Khachanov, ranked 26th, won against Adrian Mannarino with scores of 6-2 and 6-4. Top seed and U.S. Open champion Alexander Zverev was due to play a night match but no results were reported for that game. Meanwhile, the world's top-ranked player Jannik Sinner withdrew from Shanghai due to a right knee injury, announcing he would take the rest of 2026 off.
