Serena Williams Fined $10,000 After Doing This At Wimbledon
Wimbledon officials have fined Serena Williams $10,000 over an incident that happened recently.
According to AFP, Seven-time champion Serena Williams has been fined $10,000 for damaging one of the All England Club courts with her racquet, officials said Tuesday.
The 37-year-old American was sanctioned for an incident which took place during a practice session before the tournament got underway.
âThe code given is for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The reason is court damage,â a spokeswoman told AFP.
Williams is in action twice later Tuesday when she faces fellow American Alison Riske for a place in the semi-finals.
She then returns to Centre Court to partner Britainâs Andy Murray in the mixed doubles.
