The father of the tennis star Steffi Graf arrived at a German prison hospital to begin a sentence for evading millions of dollars of tax on his daughter's income, state justice officials said. Peter Graf was sentenced in January to three years and nine months in jail but it is likely he will serve a much shorter term, as he had already spent considerable time in custody during the investigation into the family's tax affairs.
