Ben Shelton enters the US Open fourth-round matchup against Stefanos Tsitsipas as the higher-ranked player (No. 9) and recent Montreal champion, riding strong hard-court form with multiple four-set wins that include a late-night victory over Denis Shapovalov featuring 14 aces. Tsitsipas, ranked No. 53 and unseeded, has shown resurgence after winning Gstaad and defeating seeded players like Jiri Lehecka, reaching his first US Open fourth round in years under new coaching. Shelton holds a serve-heavy edge on the hard courts at Flushing Meadows, though the pair's lone prior meeting favored Tsitsipas; both players carry fatigue from extended third-round matches into this encounter.
