American tennis star Ben Shelton was engaged in a war of words with tournament officials at the 2025 Wimbledon Championships, when his second round match against Rinky Hijikata was suspended.

Ben Shelton had just five words for the umpire who halted his match on Thursday evening, telling him he needed just a minute to close out the contest.

Ben Shelton has needed all of about a minute and exactly four points to wrap up a 6-2, 7-5, 6-4 victory over Rinky Hijikata in a second-round Wimbledon match suspended the night before because of darkness at 5-4 in the third set.
