The Australian player finally had a good year in 2022. However, as his on-court performances improved throughout the season, his outbursts have also come under heavy scrutiny. Fans witnessed one such outburst during the final of the Wimbledon Championships.

When asked by the umpire to elaborate, Kyrgios said, “The one with the dress, the one who looks like she’s had about 700 drinks, bro!” The spectator, Anna Palus, filed a defamation lawsuit against him.

After he lost the lawsuit, Kyrgios stated, “I accept that belief was mistaken, and I apologize.” Furthermore, he stated, “To make amends, I have donated 20,000 pounds to the Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity, a charity chosen by Ms. Palus. I will not be commenting on this matter again.”
