Quickly eliminated by Holger Rune in singles on the ATP 500 in Acapulco, Ben Shelton had fun during the doubles tournament alongside his compatriot Mackenzie McDonald.
If the two Americans narrowly lost in the quarter-finals, it was the revelation of the last Australian Open who notably distinguished himself by achieving a totally improbable winning move.
Caught up when he had to execute a volley in the middle of the court, the 41e world champion innovated by placing his racquet behind his back before seeing the ball lob his opponent slightly and fall back down the hall.
A real little miracle that the two men did not fail to celebrate.
