Wimbledon: Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas fined for behavior

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.
