Geneva, Switzerland (Sports Network) – The husband of former world No. 1 women’s tennis star Martina Hingis has accused his wife and mother-in-law of assaulting him.<\/p>\n
Thibault Hutin left Switzerland fearing for his life, according to the Blick daily newspaper.<\/p>\n
The 27-year-old filed a complaint following an incident at the couple’s apartment in the village of Feusisberg.<\/p>\n
Hutin told Blick that his wife, the recent Tennis Hall of Fame inductee Hingis, her mother, Melanie Molitor, and her mother’s boyfriend, Mario Widmer, had “beaten and scratched” him following a dispute.<\/p>\n
The French equestrian Hutin claims the boyfriend also struck him in the head with a DVD player, and added that he was so “terrified” he fled to Paris.<\/p>\n
The 32-year-old Hingis recently returned to the tennis courts to play doubles after six years of retirement.<\/p>\n
She was originally set to take part in this week’s Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo, but withdrew for “personal reasons” earlier this month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
