ATP fines Nick Kyrgios for Stan Wawrinka insult despite Facebook apology

A Facebook apology on Thursday did not prevent Nick Kyrgios from being fined by the ATP for an "insulting remark" he made a day before during a Rogers Cup match against Stan Wawrinka.

The amount of the fine was not revealed. The ATP said it would release a statement on the matter once Kyrgios was notified.

A court-side microphone Wednesday night picked up Kyrgios remarking that fellow player Thanasi Kokkinakis had slept with Wawrinka's girlfriend.

"Sorry to tell you that, mate," Kyrgios said at the time.

A day later the Australian player issued an actual apology.
