A shadow has fallen on the hallowed green turf of Wimbledon. Two matches at this year’s Wimbledon are being investigated by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) over potential irregular betting patterns, reports said.

The ITIA has received an alert. The first suspicious match is a men’s doubles match in the first round. Another is a first-round singles match. Investigations are ongoing and one can certainly not shout fixed at this stage.
