In June, Shimabukuro defeated Liam Broady in straight sets to reach the quarterfinals of the 2023 Nottingham Open. As a result, he reached a new career ranking of No. 172 on 19 June 2023. In the next grass court Challenger event, the 2023 Ilkley Trophy, he reached also the quarterfinals as a lucky loser but retired this time against Arthur Cazaux.
