He said that he was excited to play against the American and praised their previous encounter.

"I am really looking forward to it," Shelton told the press. "We had a great battle in the quarters last year and I am sure it will be another popcorn match."

Tiafoe's most recent competition was at the Cincinnati Masters, where he reached the finals, but couldn't lift the title. He was defeated by Jannik Sinner, with total points of 7(7)-6, 6(4)-2.
