Congratulations Jerry Shang - you're on your way up the ranks! Such crisp hitting and much love for the game!

[@Lil7672]

Dang, i used to never have faith in Chinese tennis, but this crop of players from the current generation is amazing, shang, wu, zhang can all be top 20 one day

[@probablypondering1657]

It’s because China has been in the final stage of development as a country for the past 15 years or so and finally has the resources and infrastructure to produce elite world class athletes in an array of sports as opposed to just their national specialities like table tennis.

Nice to see Jerry developing an all-court game with slice, volleys and drop shots. Shang, Fils and, of course, Alcaraz are my favourite 3 players right now.

[@KCNwokoye]

Ben O' Ben is not just winning these tight matches. Glad he won one set. Hopefully he continues to build on his success. Shang is an amazing player winning a lot recently in qualies and main draws.

[@03cobra4]

He's over ranked because of favorable draw/results at AO. However, he still has huge upside, but will likely drop then work his way back up. He should ultimately be a top 20+ player. Exciting to watch. Would like him to tone down celebrations, but he seems like a good kid. Personality is not a bad thing, and we need more of that in the game.

I'm starting to thing that cake draw to make the AO quarterfinals was the worst thing that could happen to Shelton. Shang is talented, he stalled for a while but he should end the year near to the top 100 (if he is able to defend his challenger title points)

[@FrankHor101]

Cake draw?? So then many players have had that like Ruud, Karatsev, Struff, etc. He beat Jarry who's top 25, soon to be top 20, Poypirin that recently won Umag, and Zhang Zhinzen another good player, I know they are not top 15 but solid players, he is not in his best moment, now the same draw would not even win a match

From this little highlights, it seems like Shelton hits hard but there isn't enough depth in shots most balls landing near the serve line. Depth and opening up the court are key in tennis. Playing so many surfaces in short span of time might have messed up stroke mechanics.

Funny game tennis. Earlier this year Shelton absolutely DEMOLISHED Popyrin at the AO. This week Popyrin defeats Wawrinka for a title and Shelton gets beaten by another emerging player, early in proceedings after a long string of underwhelming results. His agents alone are keeping his profile high which does beg the question, is Shelton hungry enough to fulfil what looked like such a promising talent? Something doesn’t ring true about this, perhaps the kid doesn’t want to play and is being pushed to?

Mostly tough draws. His ranking was so high after AO, he played more big tournaments than he probably shouldn’t have entered. At these big tournaments he got very tough opponents early and lost. Those early losses then affects the rest of the season because he got very little match play. He needs to enter small tournaments with very few top players, get wins and the extra match play with give him the ability to compete in these bigger tournaments.
