Ben Shelton says he is not prioritizing chasing money or sponsorships as he prepares for Sunday’s U.S. Open final against Alexander Zverev. The topic comes as the matchup offers Shelton the chance to win his first Grand Slam singles title.
Both outlets note that the potential prize for winning the tournament is substantial. Shelton is set to earn $5.5 million if he wins the U.S. Open. The coverage focuses less on broader competition details and more on Shelton’s personal approach to the moment and what motivates him as he reaches a career milestone.
With the same core information appearing across sources, there is little variation in emphasis beyond the shared theme: Shelton frames the opportunity as centered on competition rather than financial gain or brand partnerships. Forbes and Yahoo Sports both report the prospective $5.5 million figure and the U.S. Open final opponent, Alexander Zverev.
