    Klein, currently ranked No. 186, was found guilty of aggravated behaviour under the ATP Code of Conduct.

    "The incident was deemed to have been 'behaviour that is flagrant and particularly injurious to the success of a tournament or is singularly egregious,"' the ATP said in a statement Thursday.

    Hypocrites!!!By: Brian | 13-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward Racism is ingrained in the Indian psyche for goodness sake and has been for centuries.For example, there is no way an Indian girl will have a relationship with an African man, and the way some western women are treated is disgraceful, yet you have the hide to call one of the most multicultural nations on earth Rascist.
    Australian player with racial slurBy: Dr. Paras Deo | 10-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward What do you expect from an Aussie? I to have been racially abused by an Aussie. Why only 6 months ban. It should have been at least 1 year.
