Ben Shelton beats Flavio Cobolli 6-2, 7-5 to win clay-court Munich Open
MUNICH (AP) --- Ben Shelton bounced back from disappointment last year by
defeating Flavio Cobolli 6-2, 7-5 to win the Munich Open on Sunday.
Shelton lost the final to Alexander Zverev in 2025 and was determined not to
let it happen again at the ATP 500 event.
The 23-year-old from Atlanta hit four aces and saved every break point he faced
(six), while converting three of his own to beat the 16th-ranked Cobolli in 1
hours.
It's the sixth-ranked American's fifth career title and second on clay.
