The German channel ZDF conducted an investigation of cheating in tennis. Among the suspects are last year's Australian Open semifinalist Aslan Karatsev and Georgian Nikoloz Basilashvili

It is supposed that the money for giving up matches was offered to tennis players by their former coach Yegor Yatsyuk.

Karatsev is suspected of participating in five tricks, two of which coincided with the time of his work with Yatsyuk. We're talking about doubles matches in Finland in 2019 and in Kazakhstan in 2020, as well as a recent tournament in Stuttgart
