Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios has been slapped with four separate fines totalling $35,000 (£26,700) following his outbursts at the Miami Open.

The 26-year-old's run in the ATP Masters 1000 event came to an end in the round-of-16 last month, as Jannik Sinner overcame him in straight sets 7-6 6-3.

The typically fiery Kyrgios took issue with umpire Carlos Bernardes during the contest, branding the official an "absolute clown" and criticising his crowd-controlling abilities.

Following his latest episode of controversy, Kyrgios has incurred four separate fines, with a verbal abuse offence costing him $20,000 (£15,270).

The Australian has also been hit with two $5,000 (£3,817.70) sanctions for unsportsmanlike conduct and a further fine of the same amount for audible obscenity.

Kyrgios has now incurred over $300,000 (£228,204) in fines during his professional career and also bowed out of the doubles at the Miami Open in the semi-finals to Hubert Hurkacz and Josh Isner with partner Thanaski Kokkinakis.
