Wimbledon: Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas fined for behavior
Written byTimes Magazine
Nick Kyrios and Stefanos Tsitsipas were fined for their behavior during their bitter encounter at Wimbledon.
Kyrgios has been fined $4,000 (£3,300) for vocal indecency, while Tsitsipas has been fined $10,000 (£8,250) for unsportsmanlike behavior.
Tsitsipas received two warnings for hitting the ball on Court 1 towards the crowd during his third-round loss.
Kyrgios kept asking referee Damien Dumusois to send the Greek off the pitch for his first foul.
It was the second Championship penalty this year for the 27-year-old Australian, who increased the total fine to $14,000 (£11,500) after being punished for another incident late in his first game against England's Paul Jubb.
After Kyrgios won Saturday's turbulent encounter, he and Tsitsipas insulted each other in the post-match press conference.
Kyrgios starts Monday on Center Court at Wimbledon as he faces 20-year-old American Brandon Nakashima for a quarter-final spot.
