Australia's Davis Cup captain Lleyton Hewitt, himself a former world number one, is suspended for two weeks from all tennis-related activities and fined around 185,000 kronor for having pushed a doping controller, announces ITIA which is responsible for tennis's integrity issues.

It was after Australia's DC semi-final against Italy in November last year that Hewitt is alleged to have pushed the 60-year-old volunteer. The 44-year-old has denied the allegations and cited self-defence.

The suspension extends from September 24 to October 7.
