WA Tennis star Brydan Klein has been fined the maximum amount by the ATP for racially abusing a South African opponent during a tournament in the UK. He called Roven Klassen "a f***ing kaffir" during the match. Despite a public apology he has been fined $14,00 dollars.And after a full investigation, more penalties could arise.
Klein made a statement saying he deeply regretted his actions. Klassen's coach Stephen de Kock accused Klein of spitting in his direction during the match.He has been suspended from the Australian Institute of Sport Tour Program.
I cannot believe Klein used the racial slur just because he lost a point.
