Ben Shelton has withdrawn from the Kinoshita Group Japan Open Tennis Championships as a result of damage, the match introduced Friday.
The No. 6 participant within the PIF ATP Rankings suffered a shoulder damage throughout his third-round match on the US Open towards Adrian Mannarino and was compelled to retire earlier than beginning the fifth set. He has not competed since.
The lefty received his first ATP Tour title two years in the past in Tokyo on his debut on the ATP 500 occasion. Final yr, he returned to Japan and made the quarter-finals, falling quick in a final-set tie-break to eventual champion Arthur Fils.
Shelton owns a 37-18 file this season and is fifth within the PIF ATP Stay Race To Turin. The 22-year-old is making an attempt to qualify for the Nitto ATP Finals for the primary time.
