Becker fined over website
Three-times Wimbledon champion Boris Becker was fined by a German court on
Thursday over his role in the financial collapse of a German sports website. A
Munich court ordered Becker to pay 5,700 euros ($7,000) -- much less than the
administrator of insolvent Internet portal Sportgate was asking for.
The administrator said Becker, who was a majority stakeholder in the company,
had promised to pay 1.5 million euros ($1.85 million) to cover the firm's
losses.
Becker, who was not in court for the ruling, denied the charges.
The 36-year-old German has run into considerable trouble since retiring from
tennis in 1999, including a costly divorce, an admission he fathered a child
with a Russian model and a string of failed business ventures.
Last year, he received a two-year suspended jail sentence and a hefty fine
after being convicted of tax evasion for claiming residence in Monaco while
actually staying in Munich between 1991 and 1993.
