Ben Shelton looks to go deeper into the 2024 Paris Master on Wednesday when he goes head-to-head with Frenchman Arthur Cazaux. Shelton advanced to the second round of the Paris Masters for the first time in his career after fending off an upset bid by Corentin Moutet 6-3 6-7(8) 6-3. Fresh off a final sting at the 2024 Swiss Indoors Basel, the American firebrand unleashed an all-out attack the generated 56 points on first serves and 16 points on his second. Shelton only broke Moutet twice but the last one gave him full control of the match at 5-3 in the third set. A lucky loser from the qualifying phase, Cazaux will try to make the most of his second chance opportunity when he tussles with one of the game’s best servers. Cazaux lost to Fabio Fognini 7-6(4) 4-6 6-2 in the qualifying final, yet fortunate enough to clinch a lucky loser nod and a bye to the second round.
