Following a rough March, Ben Shelton has found his groove on the tennis court to open April. Shelton won the BMW Open in Munich, Germany, a 500-point event on the ATP Tour.Shelton defeated Emilio Nava 7-6(4), 3-6, 6-3 in the Round of 32; Alexander Blockx 6-4, 7-6(8) in the Round of 16; Joao Fonesca 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 in the quarter-final; Alex Molcan 6-3, 6-4 in the semi-final; and Flavio Cobolli 6-2, 7-5 in the final on Sunday.It's the former Gator's second win of the 2026 season after claiming the Dallas Open championship at the end of February.I came out at a really high level, Shelton said. I have done that before against him, but the toughest thing is maintaining it, as he raises his level. I was able to do that in the second set, hanging in there when he played some great tennis, and I came through to win it in straight sets. I am happy with my performance this week. I got better and better as the week went on, and I am pleased with the work my team put in here.It's also the biggest clay-court title won by an American man since Andre Agassi won the Rome ATP Masters 1000 in 2002 the same year Shelton was born. Because of his big serve, Shelton has grown a reputation as a player who's better on hard-court and grass. This victory proves that he's progressed his game over the past few years he's been on the ATP Tour.I have big ambitions on clay a surface I want to keep improving on each year," he said. "It has become one of my favourite surfaces to play on."Ben Shelton's ranking and futureShelton held his No. 6 world ranking with the championship win, and he's moved up to No. 5 in the live rankings as of Monday. He'll play in the Madrid ATP Masters 1000 event this week with a chance to close in on No. 4 Novak Djokovic, who has 4,700 points and will not play in the tournament.Shelton has a bye in the Round of 128 and will face the winner of Raphael Collignon versus Matteo Berrettini. Tomas Martin Etcheverry is the likely Round of 32 matchup, and Arthur Fils and Valentin Vacherot are the favorites to make it through to the Round of 16.Follow us@GatorsWireon X, formerly known as Twitter, as well as Bluesky, and like our page onFacebookto follow ongoing coverage of Florida Gators news, notes and opinions.This article originally appeared on Gators Wire: Ben Shelton wins ATP 500 BMW Open

Aaron Rodgers is still weighing whether he wants to play in 2026. The Pittsburgh Steelers are still willing to give him plenty of latitude to decide.Pittsburgh general manager Omar Khan said Monday the team remains in regular communication with the four-time MVP, who guided the Steelers to the AFC North title in 2025.Nothing's changed, Khan said. It's all been positive and good. He knows how we feel about him and we know how he feels about us."It just hasn't rendered any definitive answer from Rodgers, and none appears to be coming before the NFL draft descends on Pittsburgh on Thursday. The 42-year-old quarterback didn't sign with Pittsburgh until just before the start of mandatory minicamp last June. Rodgers' uncertain status, however, is unlikely to play a factor in what the Steelers plan to do with their 12 selections that begin with the 21st overall pick.That doesnt change our evaluation process, Khan said. Were still putting the guys up where they need to be and well just see how it shakes out.What was once considered a quarterback-rich draft a year ago looks far different now, with no safe bets outside of Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza of Indiana going No. 1 to Las Vegas.The Steelers currently only have two quarterbacks under contract in last year's sixth-round pick Will Howard whose rookie season a year ago was marred by a hand injury sustained early in training camp and longtime backup Mason Rudolph.Pittsburgh will almost certainly add to that depth in the draft. Penn State's Drew Allar, Miami's Carson Beck and North Dakota State's Cole Payton have all been in for pre-draft visits, though all figure to be later-round selections whenever they hear their name called.Mike McCarthy, a Pittsburgh native hired to replace Mike Tomlin in January, has a lengthy resume as quarterback whisperer of sorts. The list of players McCarthy has worked with in the past include Rodgers, Dallas' Dak Prescott and former No. 1 overall pick Alex Smith, who spent a year with McCarthy in San Francisco in 2005.We speak on it as being the most important position in football, McCarthy said. And I think its important to always try to add to it if you can (but) it has to fit.The Steelers do have several needs outside of a young quarterback, including a versatile receiver to team with veterans DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr., and at offensive tackle, a position that's in a state of flux as left tackle Broderick Jones their first-round pick in 2023 recovers from a neck injury that forced him to miss the last seven games of 2025.There is no timetable on when Jones might be ready, though he was with his teammates on Monday as part of the medical group as the Steelers held informal workouts.Khan said Jones was still early in the process and the injury means Pittsburgh will almost certainly decline Jones' fifth-year option for 2027, meaning they might head into the draft eyeing a longer-term solution to protect whoever might end up being the franchise quarterback the club has been searching for since Ben Roethlisberger's retirement in early 2022.Pittsburgh's dozen picks give Khan the option to use some of them as collateral if the team decides to trade up. There's also the chance he could trade down early in the draft to accumulate more capital.McCarthy seems fine either way. While he called the current roster a nice mix of older and younger players, the chance to add quality depth is never a bad thing.Being above 10 (picks) I think would be awesome personally, McCarthy said. Ive always felt that the more players you have to develop, I think it definitely is, for the long term, a good process.___AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl
