Young tennis sensation Ben Shelton stands on the brink of history at Wimbledon, poised to match Arthur Ashe's legendary victory from 50 years ago.

No. 10 Ben Shelton, one of two Americans remaining on the men's side of the Wimbledon draw, marched into the round of 16 with another efficient straight-sets victory Saturday.

Ben Shelton has needed all of about a minute and exactly four points to wrap up a 6-2, 7-5, 6-4 victory over Rinky Hijikata in a second-round Wimbledon match suspended the night before because of darkness at 5-4 in the third set.
