Ben Shelton is headed to his first ATP Masters 1000 final after taking down World No. 4 Taylor Fritz at the National Bank Open in Toronto.

Fourth-seeded Ben Shelton beat second-seeded Taylor Fritz 6-4, 6-3 in an all-American semifinal match Wednesday night in the National Bank Open Open.

Taylor Fritz effortlessly broke his racket after his Canadian Open semifinal defeat to compatriot Ben Shelton. The 27-year-old, who recently criticized tennis' congested calendar after Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, and Novak Djokovic all pulled out of the event in Montreal, lost in straight sets to Shelton 6-4, 6-3.
