No official word yet on Davydenko, but Alessio Di Mauro, ranked 124th in the world, has been suspended for nine months by the ATP for betting on matches with an online bookmaker. He never bet on his own matches, according to the investigation.
Quote:
Di Mauro was found to have wagered on the matches of other players from Nov. 2, 2006, through June 12 of this year. The tour's investigation found that he didn't attempt to bet on his own matches, nor did he try to fix a match.
The ATP Tour didn't elaborate on Di Mauro's actions in a statement announcing the suspension. The Associated Press reported that he placed 120 bets with an online bookmaker.
``This ruling underlines the ATP's stated policy of not tolerating players, associates or staff gambling on tennis,'' said Gayle David Bradshaw, the tour's administrator for rules and competition.
