American tennis player Ben Shelton made a public appeal to his sister to obtain an additional leave from her work at Morgan Stanley Investment Bank, so that she can stay in London, and encourage him during his participation in the Wimbledon third Grand Slam, the four major, and the matter succeeded.
After qualifying to confront Italian Lorenzo Sunijo in the fourth round Monday, Shelton spoke in an interview on the field in front of a crowd of attendees, including his sister Emma.
“I was playing well this week, I was not alone here, I have a great team, my parents here, and my sister here, was here in every match I played in the championship so far, it was the amulet of luck, but it returns to work in the United States, starting from the two, working for the Morgan Stanley Bank,” said the tenth seed of 22 -year -old, who arrived in two major championship semi -finals.
This announcement sparked some of the shouts of booing among the fans, while Emma covered her face with her hands.
“If either of you have some knowledge, and give it two additional days of leave so that you can stay, and we can continue this success, it will be great,” she added, after his victory over Hungarian Marton Foxovic with three consecutive groups in the third round.
Hours later, Emma posted a video on the Instagram platform for the exchange of photos, through which Ben asked, “Did she get a week leave or what? Emma jumped and raised her arms, and she smiles a wide smile, and her brother replied by saying, “Greetings Morgan Stanley.”
