Ben Shelton’s Wimbledon performance has been turning heads, but it’s not just his tennis skills making waves. The 21-year-old American player has advanced to the later rounds of the prestigious tournament, and fans have also taken notice of the person cheering him on from the stands — his girlfriend, professional soccer player Trinity Rodman.
Rodman, 22, has been spotted at several of Shelton’s matches, showing support as he continues his impressive Wimbledon campaign. Her appearance in the player’s box has sparked interest on social media, with many curious to learn more about the woman standing by the rising tennis star’s side.
Rodman isn’t new to the spotlight herself. A forward for the Washington Spirit in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), she is also part of the U.S. Women’s National Team. As the daughter of former NBA star Dennis Rodman, she has carved her own path in sports, becoming one of the youngest female soccer players to earn a million-dollar contract. Her growing influence in women’s soccer, combined with her high-profile relationship, has helped turn the spotlight onto her even more during Wimbledon.
The couple’s presence together at such a high-profile event has drawn media attention, especially after Rodman posted a photo on social media celebrating Shelton’s success. The picture, showing the couple embracing after a win, quickly gained traction online, further boosting public interest.
A Rising Power Couple in American Sports
Shelton and Rodman represent a new generation of athletes who are excelling in their respective sports while openly supporting each other. Both have achieved early success in their careers and seem to be using their platforms to uplift each other.
Shelton turned pro in 2022 and quickly made a name for himself with a powerful serve and fearless approach. He reached the US Open semifinals in 2023 and has now carried that momentum into Wimbledon, where he’s gaining fans with every round. Rodman, meanwhile, continues to shine on the soccer field and is expected to be a key player in the U.S. team’s future tournaments.
Their relationship, which has been quietly developing, has now come into the public eye thanks to Wimbledon. Fans appreciate how the two support each other — whether that’s Shelton watching Rodman’s games or Rodman being present at Shelton’s matches. Their bond appears to reflect more than just fame — it’s built on mutual respect and shared passion for their sports.
While many celebrity couples make headlines for the wrong reasons, Shelton and Rodman are standing out for all the right ones. They’re young, talented, and represent the best of American sports — a couple that not only wins on the field and court but also in how they carry themselves off it.
