Evidence against Russian tennis player suspected of match-fixing Aslan Karatsev no, there should be a trial, Roland Garros and Australian Open mixed doubles champion Andrey Olkhovsky said in an interview with Gazeta.Ru.
Earlier, German broadcaster ZDF reported that Karatsev could take part in five fixed matches, including two Challenger Series doubles matches in Kazakhstan and Finland.
– My opinion: every word that passes in the public space must be confirmed by something. And these words must be answered. There is no evidence, and if Aslan objected without evidence, then I think there should at least be a trial.
Many journalists chase after a sensation to become famous, showering everyone in the aftermath. This is absolutely not the case. Therefore, although there is no evidence in the Aslan case, why should we accept this information?
Will such pressure affect Karatsev’s game? Such things affect everyone purely individually, but the point is that they pour mud on you for nothing. People take no responsibility. And this, unfortunately, is happening more and more often. Therefore, I think such things should be stopped,” Olkhovsky said.
Karatsev is ranked 40th in the world rankings. The 28-year-old Russian tennis player has three titles in ATP tournaments, last year the Russian reached the semi-finals of the Australian Open.
