Trinity Rodman has resumed her role as Shelton’s devoted girlfriend, returning to the courtside to root for her tennis-star partner, Ben Shelton.
Last year, the couple publicly confirmed their romance in March after Rodman initiated the connection with a direct message to Shelton.
Despite her busy schedule in the National Women’s Soccer League as a forward for the Washington Spirit, Rodman has not hesitated to demonstrate her support for her man.
When he competed at Wimbledon in 2025 — a run that ended in a quarterfinal finish — she was there, seated beside his parents and sister.
Her courtside fashion quickly drew notice, blending designer pieces with Shelton-branded merchandise.

This year, Trinity has been just as present at his matches.
On July 30, her steadfast support stood out after she was seen celebrating courtside, inspired by her boyfriend Shelton’s victory in the round of 16 at the 2026 Mubadala DC Open.
Shelton, 23, staged a comeback to defeat Frenchman Ugo Humbert after dropping the first set.
Shelton narrowly lost the first set 7-6 before rallying to win the last two sets 6-3 and 6-4, respectively, and secure a place in the quarterfinals.
Rodman watched closely as Humbert’s final return sailed out of bounds, sealing the win for Shelton.
