Data basis for this prediction

Polymarket: Alcaraz 56 % Turniersieg, Shelton ~11 % (Stand 8. Sep. 2026)
Bleacher Report/ESPN: QF-Draw Alcaraz vs. Shelton bestätigt, US Open Sep. 2026
Olympics.com: Shelton-Zitat 'special tennis needed', Sep. 7, 2026

Verdict: Miss

Ben Shelton besiegte Carlos Alcaraz im Viertelfinale des US Open 2026 am 9. September 2026 (die Partie begann am Abend des 8. September und wurde als 9. September verbucht). Das Ergebnis laut Tennis.com (match URL: b-shelton-vs-c-alcaraz-2026-09-09) und mehreren übereinstimmenden Suchergebnissen: Shelton gewinnt, nicht Alcaraz. Damit trat genau das ein, was Shelton selbst als 'special tennis' bezeichnete – er brach erstmals seine 0-5-Bilanz gegen Alcaraz und besiegte den Topfavoriten trotz ~82% Buchmacherwahrscheinlichkeit für Alcaraz. Quellen: Tennis.com Matchseite (Ergebnis: B. Shelton gewinnt), Yahoo Sports Match-Seite, mehrere unabhängige Suchresultat-Zusammenfassungen; kein indexierter Post-Match-Artikel von USTA/ATP verfügbar, da das Ergebnis sehr frisch ist, aber die Datenlage ist konsistent.

World Athletics Ultimate Championship Budapest 2026: Nina Kennedy (AUS) wins the Women's Pole Vault final (11 September 2026)

Nina Kennedy is the reigning Olympic champion (Paris 2024 gold ahead of Katie Moon/USA) and co-world champion Budapest 2023. In July 2026 she already cleared 4.80m at the Diamond League meeting in Budapest – a strong form signal at the same venue. Competition from Katie Moon (USA), Sandi Morris (USA) and Alysha Newman (CAN, Olympic bronze 2024). Aggregated bookmaker odds imply ~35–38% for Kennedy.

World Athletics Ultimate Championship Budapest 2026: Marileidy Paulino (DOM) wins the Women's 400m final (12 September 2026)

Marileidy Paulino won gold in the 400m at the Paris 2024 Olympics and is the reigning Olympic champion. Femke Bol (NED), who long dominated, has switched to the 800m in 2026 (her Budapest 2026 entry confirmed in the 800m), so she does not compete in the 400m flat. This clears the path for Paulino: her next serious rivals would be Natalia Kaczmarek (POL, European champion) or Amber Anning (GBR). Aggregated bookmaker odds imply ~48% for Paulino.
