Adnkronos (Adnkronos) – A curious interlude at the 2026 US Open. Ben Shelton celebrates after winning the quarterfinals of the American Slam against Carlos Alcaraz, smiling, and in his post-match speech… 'forgets' his girlfriend Trinity Rodman. "I just hope my best friend and my sister don't have to go to work at 6 a.m., in three hours," said the American tennis player after reaching the semifinals at the end of a veritable marathon, which ended at 3:3 a.m.
A sentence that prompted an immediate response from his partner, Trinity Rodman, a well-known soccer player and daughter of former NBA star Dennis Rodman.
"And what about me?" Trinity replied from the stands, after being 'ignored' by her boyfriend, perhaps too elated at the moment by his stellar victory against Carlos Alcaraz. Her first career victory against the Spanish champion.
A small misunderstanding, quickly resolved, on a day to remember.
