Di Mauro banned
SHANGHAI, Nov 10: Italy’s Alessio di Mauro has been banned for nine months and fined 60,000 dollars for betting on matches by the ATP, the governing body for men’s tennis.
The 31-year-old is the first player to be penalised under the Anti-Corruption Programme of the ATP after he was found to have bet on matches between Nov 2, 2006 and June 12, 2007.
ATP said it wanted a longer suspension but added that there was no evidence that the world No 124 either bet on his own matches or attempted to affect the outcome of any matches.—AFP
