    Stumbled upon this, fairly decent read. I'm sure most are aware of this but thought I'd share anyhow:

    "As I wrote in 2013, social media is also frequently used by aggrieved gamblers to harass players whom they have placed losing wagers on."

    “One particular common fix would be to split the first two sets to a predetermined script, then play the third set fairly to determine which player progresses,” said Dorward. “I have traded matches where I am convinced that this has happened—bets have been placed on certain games for breaks of serve and correct scores in the opening two sets that have all come in.”

    Would say I saw this last week in Sonego's match. Traded bagels before playing the last set properly. Obviously can not say for sure it was a fix but it matches the description of the article which I thought was interesting.

    Match fixing is like doping in sports, it had always been and it will always be.
    Only the unlucky ones will be caught and penalized
