Not much new information, but some good quotes on this whole scandal in a recent story on bloomberg.com ...

Quote:
Patrick McEnroe, the U.S. Davis Cup captain, said today that the match-fixing allegations ``are more a threat than a problem'' and that the sport's leaders were correct to investigate. He also said he wouldn't be surprised if matches at ``a lower level, where the winnings are lower,'' might have been fixed.

``It's a relatively easy game to manipulate, because there are only two players and if one decides to manipulate the outcome there's not much that can be done,'' McEnroe said in an interview.
