Ben Shelton was just one game from victory at Wimbledon on Thursday when his match against Rinky Hijikata was suspended. Shelton was clearly angry at the decision to halt due to fading light, especially as the issue had been discussed at the start of the third set and then three games later. The pair will return on Friday to get their second-round match finished.

Well, that was a ridiculous and unnecessary delay and build up for 2 additional minutes of play.
