Nick Kyrgios has been hit with a hefty fine after he was caught simulating a sex act with his water bottle during his semifinal loss to Marin Cilic at the Queen's Club Championships in London on Saturday.
The ATP Tour fined Kyrgios €15,000 for "unsportsmanlike conduct," which will come out of the €105,480 in prize money the 23-year-old Australian earned for advancing to the semifinals, according to Metro's George Bellshaw.
Kyrgios also came under fire earlier in the tournament for swearing during his victory over Kyle Edmund, forcing BBC to apologize. When asked how he felt about the apology, Kyrgios replied, "Fine. I don't care."
