Offences in first week of tournament only a third of what they were last year, says All England Lawn Tennis Club
There has been a decline in the number of player fines at Wimbledon in 2023 compared with the same period at last year’s tournament, according to the latest figures from the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
While the first week of the this year’s championship saw obscenities uttered and the abuse of rackets and equipment, the offences only reached a third of the fines from bad behaviour that punctuated the tournament in the same period in 2022.
