The match was delayed causing confusion in Wimbledon

Shelton led 6-2, 7-5, 5-4 and prepared to end the match ending. But the American tennis player was asked to leave the field for a clock at 21h30, London time on July 3. The number 10 seeds are angry and begged to play an additional game to see if he can end the match or not. Meanwhile, Hijikata quickly carried the racket to the dressing room.

Shelton's controversy with the referee ended only thanks to the intervention of the tournament supervision. According to the Wimbledon Law, the referee will stop the match when it is dark in the yard is not the central yard and the No. 1 yard - where the roof is covered and the standard lighting system.

The match of Shelton and Hijikata took place in the No. 2 field and started to return at 12:30 pm on Friday 4/7. Most of the audience booed the referee, saying that they bought tickets and could enjoy the match out of the match if it lasted for another two minutes. Throughout the match, Shelton did not lose to any gaming, but he also had to blame himself for missing the three matches in the ninth game that Hijikata held. Another thinks that Wimbledon should feel ashamed of the organization: "The next day they will take more time to boot rather than play time ".

most viewers think that Shelton and Hijikita should play one more game. If the score is 5-5, the two players will happily wait until the next day. When returning on July 4, Shelton won four points to win the white game, ending the match. He will go to the third round to meet Marton Fucsovics - who also takes two days to eliminate the elder Gael Monfils. Accordingly, the players are allowed to wear a black band on the arm, instead of wearing traditional white costumes.
