- Teenager hit with point penalty for throwing racket
- Keys into quarter-finals after 3-6, 7-6 (4), 6-2 win
Teenager Mirra Andreeva was given a point penalty for throwing her racket and then refused to shake the umpire’s hand in her fourth-round loss to Madison Keys at Wimbledon on Monday.
The 16-year-old Russian, who has been a crowd favourite on her debut at the All England Club, looked on course to becoming the youngest player since Anna Kournikova in 1997 to make the quarter-finals when she led by a set and 4-1. But Keys fought back and Andreeva was given her first warning by the umpire, Julie Kjendlie, after flinging her racket across the grass when she lost the second set tie-break.
