Ben Shelton has entered the quarterfinals of the BMW Open in Munich. After defeating Alexander Blockx 6-4, 7-6 in the Round of 16, Shelton will have to get through Joao Fonseca in order to make it to the semifinals. The Brazilian set up the quarterfinals date against Shelton after defeating the seventh seed Arthur Rinderknech in straight sets.
Ahead of the blockbuster quarterfinals in Munich, Shelton posted a hyped up Instagram post, sharing images from his recent encounter and showing excitement for the next round.
Shelton’s girlfriend and Washington Spirit forward reposted this post on her Instagram stories and added cute emojis to send best wishes across.
Three days ago, Rodman shared a romantic moment from Munich where she can be seen kissing Shelton courtside before his match.
“Just cuz 🤍 @benshelton” she wrote in the caption.
Shelton and Rodman have been dating for over a year after their relationship went online with the former’s Instagram post in March 2025, in which a cozy elevator selfie was included. The soccer star seemingly confirmed their relationship on TikTok, and ever since, she has tried to be present for Shelton on the ATP Tour.
Shelton has also responded with respect and admiration to Trinity Rodman’s professional career. He was present for one of Spirit’s playoff games last year and upon losing the match, the American was there for Rodman in post-game consoling.
Rodman also called Shelton her “soulmate” in her New Year post, indicating the bond has only strengthened in their time dating each other.

“This is the second tournament that my girlfriend has shown up on the semi-finals day,” he said. “I’m 2-0 in semis when she shows up for that, so happy Valentine’s Day!”
Shelton would go on to win the tournament as he defeated fellow American tennis star Taylor Fritz, 3-6, 6-3, 7-5.
