As the ATP No. 10-ranked player got ready to serve to Australian Rinky Hijikata to finish his second-round match at Wimbledon, the chair umpire announced that play was being suspended due to darkness. Shelton was up 5-4 in the third set, ready to serve to win the match.

With the American up two sets to none and leading 5-4 in the third set of his match with Rinky Hijikata, play was suspended to avoid reaching the curfew that is in place at the All England Club. A handful of matches at this year's tournament have suffered the same fate, including Taylor Fritz's first round contest.

American tennis star Ben Shelton found himself furious after a controversial ruling to suspend his second-round match at Wimbledon.
