Wimbledon Sees Australian Open Champ Upset, Record Early Seed Eliminations

News summary

Wimbledon has seen several unexpected outcomes this year, including the early exit of Madison Keys, the number six seed and reigning Australian Open champion, who was defeated in straight sets by 104th-ranked Laura Siegemund. Keys' loss leaves only the top seed Aryna Sabalenka among the top six women still in the tournament. On the men's side, American Ben Shelton faced controversy when his second-round match against Rinky Hijikata was suspended due to darkness while Shelton was serving for the match. Shelton, visibly frustrated by the delay, returned the next day to quickly finish the match in just 55 to 70 seconds, apologizing to the crowd for the brief play. Shelton will next face Marton Fucsovics, who recently defeated Gael Monfils. Tournament officials acknowledged the challenging circumstances but defended the decision to suspend play due to inadequate lighting for the Hawk-Eye system.
