Trinity Rodman Crashes Boyfriend Ben Shelton’s Press Conference

All’s fair in love and tennis.

At the US Open press conference following his victory over Spain’s Pablo Carreño Busta, Ben Shelton was happily surprised to see his girlfriend, Trinity Rodman, who playfully teased him during the occasion.

Trinity, concluding the conference’s questions, wanted to know about your feelings regarding not being able to move quicker than 135 units today,” or more informally, “Trinity wrapped up the questions, curious about how you felt not being able to speed up past 135 today.

When Ben spotted his girlfriend, he burst out laughing, covering his face with his hands. Then, addressing someone unseen, he inquired, “Why on earth did you ask her such a question?

Unperturbed, Trinity persisted, “I’m certain you prefer serving large portions, and today wasn’t a day for going over 140.

In response to the question asked by the soccer star, Ben, known for his impressive tennis serve that has been clocked at 150 miles per hour, adopted a determined expression before replying.

He mentioned that it was likely because of the cold weather outside that caused him difficulties today. Specifically, he found it challenging to focus on making his shots. Since he missed the intended spots, he suggested a possible solution might be serving harder as an adjustment for future attempts. This is definitely something he intends to work on in the near future.

Even though he jokingly added, “Anyone still here, right?” as the press conference ended.

While there’s been plenty of friendly banter, I can’t help but feel incredibly grateful to have Trinity by my side as I prepare for my fourth US Open appearance. In fact, following my victory in the opening round, I made sure to save a heartfelt shoutout for her.
