Milan, 10 July (LaPresse) – A flurry of fines at Wimbledon for tennis players who behaved inappropriately, using loud swearing, unsportsmanlike conduct and “abuse of rackets or equipment”. An updated list of fines published by the All England Club shows that 2024 men's doubles champion Henry Patten received the highest fine – $12,500 – in the verbal abuse category. The British player and doubles partner Harri Heliovaara won his first Grand Slam title a year ago at Wimbledon. Amanda Anisimova, who will face world number one Aryna Sabalenka in the semi-finals on Thursday, was fined $4,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct during her fourth-round victory over Linda Noskova.
