Three-time Wimbledon champ Boris Becker was declared bankrupt at a hearing in London on Wednesday.

Becker’s attorneys had sought a one-month extension at the hearing, but Registrar Christine Derrett cited that there was no credible evidence to show Becker would be able to repay the “substantial” debt that dates back to October 2015.

“One has the impression of a man with his head in the sand,” said the registrar.

Becker, 49, who was born in Germany and lives in London, recently coached Novak Djokovic and has worked as a TV commentator. His legal team urged the judge to grant the extension, saying that he was in the process of refinancing a property that would raise about $6.68 million.
