Tennis League All Thread

it is expected a scenario about ATP ranking. here Andy Murrey is usually holding the first place and his point is 7750, whereas Nadal's point is 7465 who is staying at the 2nd place and the third position possessed by the Wimbledon champion Federer. I want to see again his name as the top of the ATP tour ranking. hopefully, he will be able to regain his position before his retirement.

Andy Murray is not in good form, so he will not be able to keep 1st place for long. Sadly, Novak Đoković has injury so he can't be number one again, at least not now. Rafael Nadal has just 285 points less than Murray. So, he will become 1st player of world soon. To be honest, he totally deserves it.

Guys, I read somewhere about the latest match fixing concern.

Three Wimbledon matches part of latest tennis match-fixing probe

Three matches at this year's Wimbledon triggered alerts for possible match-fixing, the Tennis Integrity Unit (TIU) revealed on Wednesday. One of the matches was from the main draw and the other two were in the qualifying tournament.

They will be assessed and reviewed by the TIU as part of it's latest quarterly review, alongside one match from the French Open.

Alerts are raised in response to unusual betting patterns, which are not in and of themselves evidence of match-fixing. A number of other factors, such as playing conditions or an injury to one of the players, could account for anomalous betting patterns.

Disgrace to Tennis . These are the players who can't make it to top 50 and wants to earn money in the quickest way , glad that all these matches are low level matches . If it is confirmed then they should be banned for life .

shame for professional players if any TOP 20 is involved. Where there is money there is scam, I am disappointed and i feel that the telegraph news is correct.

Today final Gastard was awesome, Kiki was crying after winning the title.
The match was cool and could see both of them struggling in second set.
Kontaviet made some errors while here serve and lost the beginning points in set 3 and thus lose.

[JL421]

Today's qualifying match between MARCHENKOV and SMYCZEK which might be a close match and both said they will qualify second qualifying match between HALYS and DENNIS which halys is surely going to win without amy doubts. Liam vs renta will be the main match for me as both have been my favourites

[StephenCurry333]

A. Rublev  - Lorenzi P. => Lorenzi wins in three sets.
John I.     -   Ebden M. => John Isner wins in two sets and tie break played yes.

First, this matching fixing devil started in IPL cricket game. There some top class players banned life time and some people banned for few years. Now it is repeating in Tennis game I think if it proved then the tennis fans would stop to watch this game. I agree the match fixing will happen in all format of games. But in Tennis game, i never expected if any top players involved in this scam means this game will lose its reputation.

So if a crackpot makes a large bet, this triggers an investigation? I am sure quite a bit of betting happens under the radar as well. So trying to analyze betting patterns to identify match fixing is very difficult.

Congratulations to Ferrer for winning the Swedish open.

Ferrer came from no-where and won an ATP trophy. It is important to understand that the age has no influence on the skills. Take a look on Federrer - In the age of 36 he is showing the best tennis of his life

True. We should not jump into conclusions. They are fully investigating and let's see how it pans out. But what's alarming here is that Tennis accounted for 59 percent of suspicious betting alerts recorded by the European Sport Security Association (ESSA) during the second quarter of this year, it has been revealed.

Tennis accounted for 59 percent of suspicious betting alerts recorded by the European Sport Security Association (ESSA) during the second quarter of this year, it has been revealed.

The ESSA, the international betting integrity body, said it had reported a total of 53 cases across five sports – tennis, football, basketball, handball and volleyball – to the relevant authorities for further investigation.

Thirty-one of these came in tennis, with football representing the next highest with 15 cases.

There were also five alerts in basketball and one each in handball and volleyball.

The figure for suspicious betting in the second quarter is significantly higher than the first.

The ESSA revealed in April that there had been 27 reported cases, with the second quarter number representing almost a 50 per cent increase.

There were 12 tennis alerts in the first quarter compared with 31 in the second, while football also saw an increase from four to 15.

“A betting pattern is deemed unusual or suspicious when it involves unexpected activity with atypical bet sizes or volumes that continue, even after significant price corrections have been made in order to deter such activity in the market,” ESSA’s report reads.

“A betting pattern is only confirmed as suspicious after ESSA has made detailed inquiries with all of its members to eliminate any prospect that the unusual patterns could be for legitimate reasons, such as pricing the market incorrectly.”

A number of studies on match-fixing, supported by the European Commission, are due to be published this summer.

ESSA have engaged with some of these studies, notably through the establishment of national anti-match-fixing platforms and laws.

“Betting integrity issues continue to be a key feature of stakeholder discussions at national and international levels,” ESSA secretary general Khalid Ali said.

“To that end, ESSA has been asked by the Council of Europe (CoE) to deliver a report on behalf of the private sports betting industry highlighting the challenges facing regulated operators to feed into the CoE’s ongoing efforts to ratify the match-fixing Convention and implement international standards.

“This important process will also feed into ESSA’s own integrity conference in London on 12 October.”

Ferrer came from no-where and won an ATP trophy. It is important to understand that the age has no influence on the skills. Take a look on Federrer - In the age of 36 he is showing the best tennis of his life

The best thing about this is he's old as far as many sports are concerned. He won 8 Wimbledon titles and countless others all over the world for years and years and yet... he still cries as if it's his first one.

Ferrer doing a Federer 

We are now seeing two Spaniards winning titles for this year alone. And Ferrer's win put him with the great Bjorn Borg in the record books. Both are three-time champions at the Swedish Open. This veterans are really showing the way for now. I think with age creaping among them, its a good thing to see them winning ATP even at the twilight of their career instead of seeing them down with injuries and cannot come back.

That movement made him cry because no one expected that Federer would go finals. Everyone predicts maximum he will reach semis because the competition is high in that tournament. But he made it, and after some bad days, he again comes to the form that is why he cried. But really we should appreciate his effort in the age of 36 he is still fit and won a big event.

That is what we call tears of joy. Its not easy to win a trophy and the road to take there is so very bumpy. That's why when he won the trophy, he is so emotionally as if he won his first major. And yes his age is also catching up that's why he has to take a rest and skip some tournament and it payed off in the end. He is truly one of the tennis great of all time.

In my books he's actually the greatest of all time, there hasn't been anyone dominant as him, even when Nadal and Jokovic were winning they weren't dominating like this guy. Roger is tennis personified and I wouldn't be surprised if he adds the US open to it.

Goffin to win the Swiss open? Gstaad Tournament ? I think so Odds look pretty great . I think he will manage to win this tournament as I don't see real big threat to him except Bautista-Agut.

[Dux2K]

Djokovic did his medical exams and it will be 6-10 weeks minimum for recovery.
He will definitely miss US Open.

Oh I see, this puts roger Federer in a poke position for another grand slam next month. I don't see anyone stopping him really if he plays like that but Jokovic's absence makes it the more easier.
