    Bernard Tomic fined 45k for tanking match
    He lost in 58 minutes against Tsonga and the Atp have accused him of not trying.

                    At least he stayed out there and took his ass whipping and didn’t quit in middle of match like half these pussies do.

                      He had the shits and the ref didn't allow him to go to the bathroom. I would have tanked too if I had diarhhea and the ref was an asshole.

                            They should fine Sharapova for retiring 5-0 last set but they don't have the balls to do it high profile player

                              can't believe i'd defend this joker... but didn't he win 4 games in the last set?

                              is there video of the match?

                              i saw a video of an exhibition match between kyrgios/tomic that people groused about. while it wasn't 2008 nadal/federer it didn't seem that awful either.

                              any thoughts on kyrgios hitting at nadal? seemed like he was far away from nadal and that's what you are supposed to do. definitely if you don't like the passing opportunity, hit it right at the center of the player. this happens probably every few points in doubles.

                                    Still sucks though, 45k was his total prize money, means he played the tournament for nothing, he is motivated only by money so won't be too happy about that.

                                      yep hilarious that Nike dropped Tomic after Wimbledon two years ago, yet kept Sharapova despite the doping scandal.

                                        Otters, google "Irakli Labadze". Tennis a very suspect betting sport...except for the very top-end.

                                          Also, google Davydenko. I'm convinced the Russian mob threatened his family + pressured into him tanking a match.

                                          I actually think the TWO SET betting rule is in place to avoid phony retirements similar to Davydenko's.

                                            Unfortunately not every book offers that rule and during Slams when many aren't familiar with tennis betting but give it a try, they don't know to look at the rules. Sooooo many dodgy matches!

                                                    I actually think the TWO SET betting rule is in place to avoid phony retirements similar to Davydenko's.
                                                    There was one game in Poland in final he won 1st set easilly and odds skyrocketed to +900 . Then he just stopped playing and books recorded chunks of money placed on his opponnent . Minor tournament so prize pool was not too big

                                                            Its not official,so guy who wrote article could be putting his opinion there. Most of them should be banned from tennis.

                                                              When u start reading, tho...you should be taken aback on the stuff going on in Tennis. Read the Fuhrer article + his friendship w/ Irakli Labadze. Read about the tour groupies hanging around the players.

                                                              And most likely, it's more than that. John McEnroe pointed out that MOST tennis players are not wealthy, they're just trying to get by. When u do the math on how much $$ they can make on fixing a match, don't think it doesn't happen.

                                                                If he didn't do all that then he can sue Wimbledon and with a good lawyer get his purse back.
