Novak vs Nishikori seems poised to be a great match up but watch Novak rebounds and beats him in 3 sets....4 at the most.

Fed will drop a set tonight. Goffin ALWAYS plays him tough for at least a set

Novak was always going to win. Simon doesn't have the game to beat a top player in 5. He did the same to Fed in the FO in 2013.

A major sports gambling website suspended betting on Sunday for a mixed doubles match at the Australian Open, raising suspicions of match fixing at one of the world’s most prestigious tennis tournaments.

Ahead of a match pitting Lara Arruabarrena and David Marrero against Andrea Hlavackova and Lukasz Kubot, large amounts of money poured in on what would normally be an obscure contest, said Marco Blume, head of sportsbook at the website, Pinnacle Sports, one of the largest and most influential betting websites in the world.

Nearly all of the money, Blume said, came down for Hlavackova and Kubot, which he said was an indication that the match might be fixed.

Hlavackova and Kubot won, 6-0, 6-3. The first set lasted only 20 minutes.

Arruabarrena, the 33rd-ranked doubles player on the women’s tour, and Marrero, ranked 32nd among men, rejected any possibility of fixing in an interview after the match. Marrero, who like Arruabarrena is from Spain, cited a knee injury in explaining their performance.

20 mins doesn't sound that weird for a doubles 6-0 set.

But if you're tanking, i'd hope you wouldn't make it so obvious.

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

20 mins for a set is far from an indictment. heavy $ on them is suspicious but need more context on that
