Keen eye for talent
A tennis star who just turned pro has been signed by Roger Fedrer’s agency. Ben Shelton won the NCAA Singles Championship last year while competing for the University of Florida and reached the third round of the Cincinnati Open last week. As the 19-year-old embarks on a professional tennis career, he is set to be managed by TEAM8, the sports management agency co-founded by Roger Federer and Tony Godsick. Shelton will certainly be delighted with this new partnership, given how much he idolises the 20-time grand slam champion.

They want you to be the superhero,”
“I don’t think I need the tennis. I am happy with the little things. When my son does something right, when my daughter comes home with a good grade. Tennis is part of my identity, but not my entire identity. I want to be and remain successful, put a lot of energy into business, but that is also possible outside of sports,” he said on the same.
