Stefanos Tsitsipas Fined $5,000 for Coaching Violation at US Open

Tsitsipas lost in the US Open second round to German player Daniel Altmaier 7-6, 1-6, 4-6, 6-3, 7-5 after four hours, then received a $5,000 fine. Though coaching is permitted, it’s only allowed when a player is on the same side as their coach. The breach adds to Tsitsipas’ struggles, with no back-to-back wins since April.
