Australia is scrutinizing the tennis betting operations. Gaming authority of Victoria has initiated a crackdown on tennis betting for potential match-fixing operations.
The government of Australia promulgated that the Victoria State’s gaming watchdog is investigating on the potential match-fixing operations associated with tennis betting services. Owing to the accusations of match-fixing and corruption the Victorian Commission of Gambling and Liquor Regulation is adamantly investigating the recent operations of Tennis Australia.
According to the local press, Tennis Australia has fallen short of halting illegal gaming transactions, whilst the sports entity has allegedly not complied with the current anti-corruption protocol. The investigation will determine whether Tennis Australia could keep on as a sports controlling body.
The accusations against the sports institution were made last year by former Brumby Government Gaming Minister Tony Robinson. Mr. Robinson stated in his complaint that “As long as these betting opportunities remain intact it is inevitable that more players in minor tournaments will be approached to fix matches.”
The State of Victoria has recently reached an agreement with the ESSA Group (Sports Betting Integrity) to prevent match-fixing operations related to licensed iGaming platforms. The agreement was signed between the international organisation and the Australian state Police and is aimed at revealing suspicious betting activity.
