9 Sep
Summary
- Ben Shelton forgot to mention his girlfriend in a viral interview.
- Trinity Rodman hilariously questioned her absence from the shout-out.
- The couple began dating in March 2025 and are serious.
In a moment that quickly became a viral sensation, American tennis player Ben Shelton's post-match interview following his marathon victory over reigning US Open champion Carlos Alcaraz took an unexpected comedic turn. Shelton, who secured the win in a match concluding at 3:33 a.m. ET, expressed hope that his best friend and sister wouldn't have to work early the next morning. This oversight immediately prompted a humorous reaction from his girlfriend, soccer star Trinity Rodman, who was shown in the broadcast asking, "What about me?"
This lighthearted exchange provided a much-needed moment of levity after an arduous and lengthy competition. Ben Shelton and Trinity Rodman officially began their relationship in March 2025, with Rodman attending Shelton's matches since April of that year. She has become a visible supporter, even wearing a "I ❤️my boyfriend" shirt during the US Open. Shelton is set to face fellow American Frances Tiafoe in the US Open semi-finals on Friday.
