Players at Wimbledon have been racking up fines for swearing too loudly, unsportsmanlike conduct and abuse of rackets or equipment.
An updated list of fines released recently by the All England Club showed that 2024 men’s doubles champion Henry Patten received the biggest fine — $12,500 — for verbal abuse.
Patten was fined on June 29 for allegedly verbally abusing a staff member at an off-site practice ground. Amanda Anisimova, who played top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka in the semi-finals on Thursday, picked up a $4,000 fine for unsportsmanlike conduct during her fourth-round victory over Linda Noskova.
French doubles player Theo Arribage was fined $7,500 fine for unsportsmanlike conduct during his second-round loss on Saturday, and next highest was compatriot Adrian Mannarino’s $6,000 fine, also for unsportsmanlike conduct during his second-round win last week. In all, seven men have been fined so far. Their total is $36,000. The total for the eight women who have been fined so far is $29,500.
