In October 2023, Zverev was issued with a penalty order and fined almost £400,000 for committing bodily harm against a previous girlfriend and the mother of his daughter, Brenda Patea, after she accused him of strangling her. Under German law, a penalty order is issued by a public prosecutor’s office when a trial is considered to be unnecessary, for example, in situations where there is compelling evidence to support one side.
Zverev eventually reached out-of-court settlement with Patea in June 2024, days before he played in the French Open final against Carlos Alcaraz. The settlement meant legal proceedings were discontinued without a finding or admission of guilt, and Zverev, who described the allegations as “bulls***”, has repeatedly and strenuously denied them.
The prospect of a trial hung over that year’s Roland Garros, with the decision to settle arriving before Zverev played Casper Ruud in the semi-finals. After that match, Zverev was asked about the settlement and said: “They’re not going to drop the case if you’re guilty at the end of the day. Done. We move on. I never ever want to hear another question about the subject again.”

No, a fine doesn't seem to be a conviction as such. He said he was going to appeal. Not sure if he did, and if he did, what the outcome was. Maybe he can't have. as not aware of there being a trial?AddicksAddict said:
