Operations director says concerns should ‘absolutely’ be raised after Yulia Putintseva’s alert over ‘crazy’ spectator
Security at Wimbledon is “absolutely critical”, the tournament’s operations director has said, after a player raised concerns about a spectator during the championship’s first day.
During her match on Monday, the world No 33, Yulia Putintseva, raised security concerns to the umpire about a spectator whom she described as “crazy” and “dangerous” and asked to be ejected.
