Ben Shelton ranked a career-high 10th in the ATP Tour world rankings released Monday, giving the United States three men in the top 10 for the first time in nearly two decades.

Shelton joined No. 4 Taylor Fritz and No. 8 Tommy Paul to mark the first top-10 American trio since Andy Roddick (No. 4), James Blake (No. 7) and Andre Agassi (No. 10) in April 2006.

“That’s really cool. A big milestone in tennis,” Shelton said Friday after reaching the semifinals in Stuttgart, Germany, and learning of his impending ranking.

The 22-year-old left-hander is only the fourth U.S. southpaw to reach the top 10 since the rankings began in 1973, joining Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe and Roscoe Tanner.

Fritz moved up three spots after his victory in Stuttgart. Paul took last week off after reaching the quarterfinals at the French Open.

The rest of the top 10 on Monday features seven players from seven different countries, led by World No. 1 Jannik Sinner of Italy, No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz of Spain, and Alexander Zverev of Germany.
