The arrest, however, relates to last year’s Roland Garros when bookmakers issued alerts for abnormal betting patterns during Sizikova’s first-round women’s doubles match alongside Madison Brengle of the United States, which they lost 7-6(8) 6-4 to Romanians Andreea Mitu and Patricia Maria Tig.
During that encounter, hundreds of thousands of euros were reportedly wagered on a break of serve at 2-2 in set two. Sizikova was culpable for three of the points conceded, including two double faults, as she lost her serve to love.
Sizikova is currently ranked 101st and she has earned a total of $206,617 (£146,310) prize money over her 11-year career. This happened before with other tennis players. Just a thought.
