Zverev beats Shelton in four sets for first US Open title

Alexander Zverev beat Ben Shelton in four sets in New York on 13 September to win his first US Open men's title, The Guardian reported. The top seed, the ranking that keeps favourites apart early, denied the home crowd. He survived a near five-hour first round, then beat Karen Khachanov in the semi-final. Survival first. Control last.
