Shelton Downs Compatriot Mmoh In Dallas Debut; Duckworth, Giron Score Upset Win

American Michael Mmoh: Ben Shelton made a grand debut at the Dallas Open with an aggressive all-court game to beat fellow American Michael Mmoh 6-3, 6-3 and earned his sixth tour-level quarterfinal appearance and his second on home soil after his electric run to the 2023 US Open semifinal.

In his first match since a third-round defeat to Adrian Mannarino at the Australian Open, the third-seeded Shelton lost just three points on serve and ripped 23 winners in an efficient 63-minute victory on Wednesday night.

"I think the biggest thing for me is my movement. I think a year and a half ago I had two left feet. I couldn't move on the court. Probably there's a lot of people in the stands right now who were moving on the tennis court better than me. But I feel like that's the part of my game that improved the most and I'm moving at a pretty high level right now," Shelton said after the match.
