Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas know the aftermath of their heated third-round clash at the 2022 Wimbledon as they both received hefty fines.
The third-round match at the 2022 Wimbledon between Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsistsipas was full of great tennis, talking, body shots, entertainment and controversy. Both players had different opinions what happened after the match, but the tournament officials had a clear idea about it.
While the Greek player claimed that he was "bullied" by his opponent, Kyrgios stated that it was all about Tsitsipas on Saturday night.
"It's constant bullying. He bullies opponents. He was probably a bully in school, too.... He has a very evil side to him. This needs to stop. It's not okay. Someone needs to sit down with him and talk. I cannot just sit there and act like a robot."
"As for me, I just competed. I didn't do anything. I literally did not do a thing. Maybe he should figure out how to beat me. The circus was all him. I'm one of the most liked players in the locker room. He's not liked.... He has some serious issues."
But the officials clearly thought it was a two-man circus as both players received a fine after the match. For the ball abuse, Stefanos Tsitsipas received a $10,000 fine. On the other hand, Nick Kyrgios received only $4,000 fine for audible obscenity.
