Daniel Koellerer - Life Ban
Permalink  

Looking through the BBC Sport section this morning and news on Daniel Koellerer's verdict on his involvement in match-fixing:

 

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/tennis/13608639.stm

 

No information on matches/tournaments that were affected and "I didn't do it but not sure if I will appeal because of the cost implications" from Koellerer. I recall a discussion sometime last year about Koellerer and his antics and he seemed wayward but if, as what his lawyer says is true that no real evedence has been produced, it's a strange decision. There must be a good deal of proof.

He has a bit of previous, in August 2010, although this is more stupidity than corruption:

Daniel Koellerer and Manager disciplined after admitting Tennis Anti-Corruption offence

Austrian tennis player Daniel Koellerer and his manager Manfred Nareyka have been disciplined under the Uniform Tennis Anti-Corruption Programme for the offences of facilitating betting.

A Tennis Integrity Unit investigation found that Mr Koellerers personal website carried details of betting odds on tennis matches and provided links to allow users to place bets. The offence of facilitating betting contravenes Article D1b of the Uniform Tennis Anti-Corruption Programme.
