“Of course, we (rejected) it right away”. I don’t know how many new things are out there. “There was nothing out of it”.

There was a minor upset when twice grand slam champion Svetlana Kuznetsova, a title victor in Sydney last week, was dumped out of the tournament by Kateryna Bondarenko 6-1 7-5 but the major ruction in the women’s draw came later.
However, the BBC and Buzzfeed did not name any of the big names.
The report did not present any evidence of match-rigging.
“Unfortunately there were some, in those times, those days, rumours, some talk, some people were going around”.
Its the least I expect to be in the third round of a Slam, obviously, so Im pumped up, playing well, feeling good, Federer said. “For me, it’s an act of bad sportsmanship, a crime in sport honestly”.
“I do believe and assume that the organising bodies of any sport would treat this [subject] with the seriousness that it deserves, to protect the integrity of the game and also the fans of the sport”, Agassi said. That’s the way I’ve grown up.
“It was hot conditions today, especially when the clouds went, so I was glad to get it done in three sets”. When Djokovic was further asked to elaborate on the circumstances of the match, he replied: “I’ve lost that match”. “I love it every time I come here”. Who was it? Was it before?
Konta and Watson are likely to be handed the two singles spots next month for Britain’s Europe/Africa Zone Group I matches against Georgia and South Africa but the doubles team is less clear-cut.
He added: “It’s super serious and it’s super important to maintain the integrity of our sport”. “So how high up does it go?”
Top seed Williams took exactly an hour to dismiss Taiwan’s Hsieh Su-wei 6-1 6-2 in the second match of the day on Rod Laver Arena after fifth seed five-times grand slam champion Sharapova had routed unseeded Belarusian Aliaksandra Sasnovich 6-2 6-1.
The report claims all of the 16 players have ranked in the world’s top 50 and that more than half of them were playing in the Australian Open first round, which started on Monday.
Andy Murray finds it “hypocritical” that tennis authorities are trying to stamp out match-fixing run by gambling syndicates but have partnered with a major gambling company that is now advertising on the Australian Open’s show courts. The report claimed tennis authorities have ignored allegations of match fixing, a charge officials from the ATP and other organizations have denied. Both men had served short suspensions in 2008 for betting on tennis matches.

The report, written by Gunn and Jeff Rees (who became the first head of the TIU) was sparked by a notorious match between Russian Nikolay Davydenko and Argentinian Martín Vassallo Argüello in the Polish resort of Sopot in 2007.

Indeed, while Tuttosport claimed that the allegations were found in documents that are part of an investigation into match-fixing by prosecutors in Cremona, they did not present any of the documents or any other supporting evidence and stressed that Djokovic was not under investigation.
