Ben Shelton
\n Shelton scoops February Stella Artois ATP Perfect Serve with Dallas performance<\/p>\n

American won fourth title at ATP 500 event<\/p>\n

March 19, 2026<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

Ben Shelton<\/a> is February\u2019s Stella Artois ATP Perfect Serve winner, setting the tone from his very first game en route to the title in Dallas.<\/p>\n

The American powered to the ATP 500 title with a series of clutch serving performances, but it was his opening service game of the tournament that defined his campaign. Down 0\/40 against Gabriel Diallo<\/a>, Shelton responded emphatically, striking three aces to escape trouble and hold. It was an early statement of intent.<\/p>\n

From there, the No. 9 player in the PIF ATP Rankings never looked back. Shelton\u2019s delivery remained a constant weapon throughout the week, helping him navigate the field and ultimately lift his fourth tour-level trophy.<\/p>\n

Fellow nominees Sebastian Korda<\/a> and Flavio Cobolli<\/a> also impressed with standout serving displays in February, but it was Shelton\u2019s combination of power and poise under pressure that earned him the fan vote.<\/p>\n
