In addition, he was fined $3,000 with an additional $5,000 suspended on the basis that he commits no further breaches of the Tennis Anti-Corruption Program (TACP) rules, the International Tennis Integrity Agency announced.

The case was dealt with under the 2022 Proposal for Disposition policy, which enables a sanction to be handed down from the ITIA to the player upon admission of guilt, without the need for a hearing.
