Ben Shelton's sister Emma shared the hilarious moment of Carlos Alcaraz playfully 'beating up' Ben at the 2024 Garden Cup exhibition. The Spaniard went over to the American, who fell over during one of their electrifying rallies, but what ensued left everyone in splits.

Shelton and Alcaraz played each other at the iconic Madison Square Garden for the Garden Cup exhibition. The two displayed the highest level of tennis but it was the Spaniard, who ended up clinching the cup after staging an impressive comeback from a set down to win 4-6, 6-2, 1-0.

During one of the rallies in the opening set, Alcaraz forced Shelton to run over to the net and stretch his entire body in order to return a ball. The full stretch led the American to take a tumble, which the Spaniard took full advantage of by just comfortably volleying the ball to the other side.

The 21-year-old immediately rushed over to Shelton, who was lying on the ground, seemingly to help him. In a hilarious turn of events, Carlos Alcaraz started to act as if he was beating Ben Shelton up leaving everyone in splits.

Ben Shelton's elder sister Emma, who is often seen supporting her Ben, captured the rib-tickling moment and shared it on her Instagram Story. She wrote:

"Showtime."
