LAS VEGAS, June 30 (UPI) -- Former tennis star Anna Kournikova sustained cuts to her neck in a fight with another woman last weekend in Las Vegas, People Magazine reported.

The magazine said Kournikova was in the Lavo Nightclub Saturday night when a scuffle broke out with another woman, who allegedly threw a drink at her.

A witness told People the tennis player and her assistant were sitting at a table during the HardBat Classic party when the other woman bumped them. They were allegedly separated then, but another confrontation ensued when Kournikova was leaving the nightclub, the onlooker said.

"The woman came back over and threw a drink on Anna and her assistant," the source told People. "The woman was definitely drunk. Anna said she wanted the woman kicked out, but then everything started to escalate and she and the woman started shoving and pushing each other."

The witness said the woman grabbed Kournikova by the neck and pushed her into a wall before they were separated.
