by luvsports! Thu Dec 01, 2016 5:08 pm
"Police in Spain have arrested 34 people in connection with a suspected match-fixing ring in both Spain and Portugal.
The arrested include six tennis players, the country's interior ministry said, without identifying any of the individuals.
They are accused of deliberately arranging the loss of tennis games in at least 17 different events.
Authorities said their earnings from the manipulation were over €500,000 (£420,420).
A police spokesperson told the AFP news agency that players were offered between €500 (£419) and €1,000 (£837) to throw matches."

this seem to be an ever increasing problem within the game
its looking like its happening at the top of the ATP game too,not just on the challenger tour

Another spin on Serbian portals: Djoko sold the WTF, but in return gets a Nike sponsorship or LaCoste now interested too.

Again, just a token scapegoat haul.
Money is protecting itself so much I can't remember any proper scandal ever been reported.
The only really big one was Lance Armstrong.
Journalists are a waste of time and journalism a myth profession (sorry LS, nothing personal).
