Tennis probe to last at least a year
The independent investigation into allegations of match fixing and corruption in tennis will take at least a year, the sport’s four governing bodies said Friday. Tennis leaders set out the terms of the probe, saying an independent review panel “will investigate thoroughly the allegations of corruption in international professional tennis and the effectiveness of existing anticorruption practices and procedures,” announced during last month’s Australian Open in the wake of media allegations that officials had failed to properly investigate suspected cases of match fixing.
