He was fined for spitting towards a spectator during his first-round win over Paul Jubb, and was also hit with a financial penalty following his fiery third-round match with Sterfanos Tsitsipas. However, his often mercurial play helped him through to the final four, where he was given a walkover due to an injury to Rafael Nadal.
