Former coach Juan Carlos Ferrero is joining Ben Shelton‘s coaching staff for the 2027 season.
“Huge addition to my team for this upcoming season,” the 24-year-old Shelton said on social media. “Excited to get started and put in the work this offseason.”
Ferrero, a former world No. 1, helped guide Carlos Alcaraz to his first six major titles before their partnership ended last December.
Ferrero will join Shelton’s father, Bryan Shelton, in the coaching setup.
The fourth-ranked Shelton won a career-best four titles in 2026 and reached his first major final at the U.S. Open, where he lost to Alexander Zverev.
“Ben has extraordinary talent, power and character,” Ferrero said. “I’m very happy to join Bryan and the team in this exciting new chapter.”
