Kyrgios was fined $12,500 by the ATP Tour on Thursday as it launched an investigation into the 20-year-old&rsquo;s remark to French Open champion Stan Wawrinka in a second-round match Wednesday at the ATP Rogers Cup in Montreal.
&ldquo;The statement made by Nick Kyrgios is crude and unacceptable,&rdquo; Allaster said in a statement. &ldquo;I commend the ATP on assessing the on-site maximum fine and urge there to be further sanctions.&rdquo;
