Grand Slam French Open 2020

watched footage of the Match Fixing in the womens doubles game..Looks pretty obvious to me that they have deliberatly thrown that game.. huge double faults and the Romanian player falls over for no reason on the 2nd point, lots of chatter amongst them both during the game too. Will be in trouble no doubt

At the French open?

French Open match-fixing investigation launched after strange scene unfolds

Prosecutors were forced to act after a bizarre event played out at Roland Garros - resulting in huge sums being won.

Never heard of the Russian before. Career high 336 in singles. Just inside the top 100 in doubles with a career high ranking. Doubles results are crap aside from winning Lausanne with Potapova. Sounds like she is making the most of her situation until those points drop off.

First I've heard of it.

Tracked down the footage.



Not sure if match fixing or if just regular crappy female tennis.

What's the going rate for throwing a game / set / match?

Five figures? Six figures?

If the price is right...

i think its pretty obvious tbh.
apparently hundreds of thousands $$ was placed on the Belgium women to win this particular game.. They even spread it across several bookmakers but it would have turned heads immediately considering there would have hardly been any $$ wagered on anything else in the match. Looks like she even gives her American partner the shh signal after the first point, you can see her bringing her index finger to her lips lol. anyone else pick that up?

 

[NonPhixion]

unless im looking too much into this but the way she pats her thigh twice is almost like a signal to the other chick? second serve of the second set???

 

[mouncey2franklin]

I've got no doubt there's tonnes of fixing going on in Tennis by the way.

There's one high profile male player who I am 99% sure is / was on the take to lose the first set of matches regularly.

He would then take an 'injury break', come back and crush his opponents like cans.

This was a couple years ago when I was following the sport more closely.

Around the 56 sec mark, she easily gives up

 

[NonPhixion]

probably an organised crime group behind it

Lol at her trying to hit it into the net, the ball going over, and the shock of having to pretend to play another shot.

I'd be surprised if the player themselves got anymore than a few thousand.

Are you feeling Tipsy?

Nadal wasn't happy playing so late.

Rafa Nadal lashes out at 'dangerous' French Open decision

Rafael Nadal didn't finish his fourth round match at the French Open until the early hours of the morning - and he wasn't happy about it either.

au.sports.yahoo.com

Fair enough, it was cold!

 

[HODGEYROAD]

I really wanted a Thiem vs Nadal match up, but geez that was a good quarter final and I can't take anything away Diego.

 

[Roobs321]

Swiatek-Podoroska SF is refreshing

Swiatek is now 7-1 at RG, whilst Podoroska's only prior maindraw GS match was a R1 loss to (long since retired) Annika Beck at the '16 USO. So she hasn't lost a GS match to a current player.

 

[Hamingja]

Hope Kvitova can get this done quick. I reckon Kenin and Collins will be a massive 3 set shitfest and I want to watch some of the Tsitsipas and Rublev match.

 

[Hamingja]

Tennis gods having a laugh if Barty and Kvitova win consecutive French Opens. Bertens would then have to win Wimbledon to go with Halep last year to balance it out.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Thank the lord Kvitova takes out the evil "MTO" Seigmund

 

[JackNah_8]

Mto didn't help out

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Mto didn't help out

For once lol

Now can Collins the annoying wesel lose

 

[BobbyMorri]

I like Collins. She is a character. and certainty not boring. prefer her than Kenin(and her dad)

Kvitova way too powerful. Never gave the german a chance to play.

That weasel can't stop squealing though! There's entertaining and then there's making my ears bleed!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Now drive the advantage now! Finish her Kenin

 

[LukeParkerno1]

1 more set!

Kenin takes the first set woohooooo

Did you see in the last match Kenin's Dad went and sat next to Ferro's coach. Creepy as. I would have got security to turf him.
