Interestingly, the revelation follows on the heels of Shelton telling Vogue that he was single. The American explained that he had made the conscious decision to avoid dating because he was focused on engaging in introspection and working on his tennis career.
“I have enough responsibilities on my plate right now. I’m just trying to figure out me,” he said.

Having entered the Miami Open as the 13th seed, Ben Sheton has received a bye in the first round. The American will face the winner between Daniel Altmaier and Coleman Wong in his opening match at the ATP Masters 1000 event.
If Shelton emerges victorious, he will likely face Hubert Hurkacz in the third round, followed by a potential fourth-round clash with a formidable opponent like Taylor Fritz or Denis Shapovalov.
After losing to Jack Draper in the quarterfinals of the Indian Wells Masters, the World No. 14 could avenge his defeat in a potential quarterfinal meeting with the Brit in Miami. Meanwhile, the American’s semifinal opponents include top seed Alexander Zverev and Frances Tiafoe.
Shelton will be looking to deliver a stronger performance at the Miami Open after suffering a third-round loss to Lorenzo Musetti at last year’s edition of the event.
