Can Juan Carlos Ferrero Turn Ben Shelton Into a Grand Slam Champion?

Ben Shelton has added Juan Carlos Ferrero to his coaching staff for the 2027 season. Ferrero will work alongside Bryan Shelton to help the 24-year-old refine his tactical approach, specifically focusing on improving return consistency and baseline point construction.

Despite reaching a career-high ranking of world No. 4 and securing seven ATP titles, Shelton aims to elevate his game to compete for major trophies.

Ferrero brings experience from his successful tenure with Carlos Alcaraz, where he emphasized disciplined court positioning and controlled aggression. The American currently holds a 71% service point win rate but seeks to improve his 33% return success rate to better challenge elite opponents.
