Kyrgios, Tsitsipas Handed Fines After Heated Third-Round Match

After their third-round match turned into a war of words in the aftermath, Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas have each been issued fines for their actions during the match, which Kyrgios ended up winning in four sets.

Kyrgios was levied a $4,000 fine for an “audible obscenity” he let out following a code violation during the match. Tsitsipas was fined $10,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct after he was given two code violations for instances of ball abuse.
