The mother of his daughter, Brenda Patea, has filed another assault claim against tennis sensation Alexander Zverev. Tennis fans on Twitter have expressed outrage about the fresh charges, and prominent tennis journalist Ben Rothenberg has come under fire for his response.
The Berlin public prosecutor’s office has intervened by requesting a “criminal order” against Zverev. The World No. 19 will have two weeks to appeal the decision, pending court clearance. The management team of Patea has indicated that certain facts of the charge are still being kept a secret.
Due to Rothenberg’s efforts, the ATP is now looking into Zverev’s alleged domestic violence by his ex-girlfriend Olga Sharapova. Rothenberg’s recent social media tweets have generated controversy since they are perceived as bragging about his earlier accusations being proven true in the wake of fresh assault allegations.
Although he eventually deleted the tweet, his subsequent comment was also perceived as relishing the most recent accusation against the 26-year-old. A fan alleged that Rothenberg cared about being correct and didn’t support women.
- A fan tweeted, “He doesn’t actually support women he just wanted to be right,”
- Another fan reacted negatively to the journalist’s word choice; “Shut the f**k up. There is nothing GOOD about a woman being harmed,” a fan commented.
- Further commented, “How are women ever supposed to feel safe when even the men who support them act like this,” an article from sportskeeda.com mentioned.
