REPORT: Alexander Zverev issued penalty order for abusing ex, fined €450,000 


Alexander Zverev has reportedly been fined €450,000 ($475,832) by a German court after being issued a penalty order for an abuse claim made by ex-girlfriend Brenda Patea stemming from a May 2020 incident.

The Berlin public prosecutor’s office had sought the order against the reigning Olympic gold medalist and 2020 US Open finalist in July. In confirmation obtained by The Guardian that broke Tuesday evening, that order was issued on October 2.

Zverev previously “completely rejected” the allegations made by Patea, the mother of his daughter Mayla. The 26-year-old is contesting the order, with his lawyers describing the procedure as “scandalous.”
