The soccer star asked a question, which had everyone laughing. She said, via ESPN:

"How did it feel not serving faster than 135 today? ... I just know you like to serve big and it wasn't breaking 140 today."

Shelton asked:

"Why did you give her a question?"

While answering, he added:

"It was cold outside. So I think that was the main reason. I was focused on hidden spots and I didn't hit those spots, so maybe I should just serve bigger, but something I'll definitely work on next time."

Shelton exited the US Open with a shoulder injury he suffered in the third-round match against Adrian Mannarino.
