Agitated tennis fans took to social media to express their rage against Olympic gold medalist Alexander Zverev after reports of a penalty order being requested against him for bodily harming the mother of his child surfaced.As per media house RTL, Brenda Patea, his daughter's mother, has accused Zverev of domestic violence and the public prosecutor's office in Berlin has petitioned for a penalty order to be issued against the German tennis star. If the court accepts the application, the accused will have to appear in court for a trial.After the news reached the general public, tennis fans voiced their anger on Twitter. One user wondered how the accused was still playing at the same venues as WTA players."How this man can play tennis and is in the same venues as WTA players is beyond me," she wrote.Marty@SvitoflopinaHow this man can play tennis and is in the same venues as WTA players is beyond me twitter.com/AdamAddicott/s…116How this man can play tennis and is in the same venues as WTA players is beyond me twitter.com/AdamAddicott/s…The 26-year-old had faced similar allegations in 2020. His former girlfriend Olga Sharypova reported that Zverev had abused her emotionally and physically during ATP Tours in Shanghai, Monaco, Geneva, and New York. The ATP, however, took no disciplinary action against him due to the "non-availability of substantial evidence".Another fan went as far as to demand jail time for the German, saying:"Oh my god this man is a serial assaulter. Put him in jail omg."High Blood Pressure@thetwinkwolffOh my god this man is a serial assaulter. Put him in jail omg twitter.com/adamaddicott/s…5Oh my god this man is a serial assaulter.
