Wimbledon: Two matches investigated over irregular betting patterns

Two matches at Wimbledon this year are under investigation after "possible irregular betting patterns".

The matches, which were reported to the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA), are an early-round singles match and a men's doubles contest.

On the singles match, a five-figure sum was bet at the end of the second set on the exact result.

During the doubles match, a winning bet was placed as the favourites, who eventually lost, took the first set.

It was reported in the German newspaper Die Welt that a German player was involved in the singles match in question, but was not themselves under investigation.
