Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas had a rather ugly clash in the Wimbledon 3rd round on Saturday. The Australian player won the encounter after displaying his trademark behavior to irritate Stefanos. Tsitsipas made the mistake of losing his cool trying to hit his opponent numerous times at the body and slamming balls in the stands.
Eventually, both players got fined (Tsitsipas for $10,000 and Kyrgios $4,000).
Here is the list of the fined players.
