The crowd at the Basel ATP wanted to see their player, Stan Wawrinka, string together victories at home after defeating Adrian Mannarino in his debut. However, Ben Shelton dashed all hopes by winning 7-6(2) 7-5 to secure his ninth quarterfinal appearance this year. The American didn't have it easy either, as Wawrinka pushed himself to provide a good and entertaining match. It wasn't enough this time, but the Swiss can conclude his journey in Basel with his head held high. On the other hand, Shelton underwent a tough test and will now face Andrey Rublev in the quarterfinals.
