The suspension occurred around 9:29 PM local time at the All England Club in London. Shelton expressed frustration at the interruption as he was just one game away from advancing to the third round. The following day, Shelton resumed play and completed the match in under a minute, winning four points including three aces and one service winner. This swift conclusion secured Shelton's victory with set scores of 6-2, 7-5, 6-4, allowing him to advance to Wimbledon’s third round.
