Alexander Zverev has been ordered by a Berlin court to pay an undisclosed fine for physically abusing the mother of his child, the German tennis player\u2019s lawyers said, adding that he would contest the court order.<\/p>\n

The former world No 2 \u201crejects the accusation made against him\u201d 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.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Zverev\u2019s lawyers, Schertz Bergmann, claimed they had expert medical evidence that would support Zverev\u2019s denials and confirmed the appeal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe procedure is scandalous, there can be no question of a fair, constitutional procedure,\u201d read the statement. \u201cMr Zverev will take action against this using all means possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Guardian <\/em>reported that the Tiergarten District Court in Berlin fined Zverev 450,000 euros.<\/p>\n

In January, the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) closed an investigation that was launched after another ex-girlfriend, tennis player Olga Sharypova, accused Zverev of domestic abuse. The ATP cited insufficient evidence as its reason for dropping the case.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n
