Court orders Zverev to pay fine for physical abuse

The former world No.2 "rejects the accusation made against him" by his former girlfriend Brenda Patea that she was a victim of bodily harm during an argument in 2020, his lawyers said.

The pair had a daughter in 2021, though by that time they were no longer together.

The Guardian reported the Tiergarten District Court in Berlin fined Zverev 450,000 euros ($A750,000).

Zverev, 26, is currently playing at the Paris Masters, where he beat Marton Fucsovics 4-6 7-5 6-4 on Tuesday.

He is set to face Ugo Humbert in the second round on Wednesday.
