The BBC was embroiled in yet another Wimbledon sexism row last night after Boris Becker commented on the attractiveness of a player's fiancee.

The pundit had spotted Marton Fucsovics' partner in the stands as the Hungarian took on defending champ Novak Djokovic on Centre Court.

As Anett Boszormenyi, 29, flashed up on the screen, Becker remarked: 'They do say they have the most beautiful women in Hungary. I wouldn't know that, but she's certainly very pretty.'

It comes after fellow commentator John McEnroe provoked anger earlier in the week by suggesting British teenager Emma Raducanu couldn't handle the pressure at SW19.
