INTERPOL Integrity in Sport Bi-Weekly Bulletin 19 March 2019 - 1 April 2019 INVESTIGATIONS France Net Widens in Tennis Match-Fixing Racket Probe, 137 Players Under Suspicion Seven French tennis players were detained by French police this week under suspicion of throwing games at the behest of a match-fixing mastermind, known to players as “The Maestro.” The Maestro is Armenian Grigor Sargsyan who was arrested by Belgian police late June and remains in custody. He is accused of fronting a massive gambling syndicate that targeted players in the lower echelons of professional tennis and convinced dozens to fix hundreds of games for cash. French sports daily L’Equipe reports that the seven players detained and questioned this week brings the total from the country to 17. While the seven have not been identified, authorities said five had admitted accepting money from the syndicate to throw matches. One said he had fixed over 20, receiving around $34,000 in return. Belgian police, who are leading the investigation, have said they now suspect 137 players from more than half a dozen countries, including the US, after pouring over phone records linked to the Maestro, and have requested assistance from the FBI. The scheme was organized via encrypted messaging and players are believed to have been paid between $570 and $3,400 to throw matches.

  • Claressa Shields Sport: Boxing Biography
    Name: Claressa Shields Sport: Boxing Biography: Seventeen-year-old Claressa Shields enjoyed an eventful summer prior to starting her senior year in high school. The Flint Northwestern High School senior made history simply advancing to the London Games, the first-ever in the sport of women’s boxing. The event was a culmination of years of work for she and her lifetime trainer, Jason Crutchfield, but just earning a berth at the Olympic Games wasn’t enough for this teenager. She wanted nothing but gold and with three strong wins in London, she accomplished her goal. In 2012, Claressa was titled as 2012 Olympic Gold Medalist, 2012 Women’s Continental Champion, and 2012 U.S. Team Trials Champion and Outstanding Boxer Shields took up boxing as an 11-year-old after hearing her father talk about Laila Ali. She initially thought he wanted her to box but quickly learned after asking for his permission that he wasn’t exactly keen on the idea. He eventually came around after a family vote with Shields’ stepmother, and she’s been a force to reckon with ever since. A proud Flint native, Shields wanted badly to bring something positive to her hometown, which hasn’t had much to celebrate recently. She understands the importance of being a role model to the young people in her community and has been overwhelmed by the unbelievable outpouring of support she has received since returning from London with her gold medal. She was welcomed at the airport by over 500 well-wishers and can’t go anywhere in her hometown without being stopped for photos and autographs and she refuses to disappoint anyone.

Na prova da corrida com barreiras, os obstáculos devem ser feitos de metal e madeira. De acordo com a Confederação de Atletismo, a barreira tem que ser montada de uma forma que para derrubá- la seja necessária uma força pelo menos igual ao peso de 3,6Kg aplicada horizontalmente para o centro da borda de cima da barra superior. Se durante a prova do arremesso de peso, o competidor tocar com qualquer parte do seu corpo em qualquer parte do anteparo, além de seu lado interno, o arremesso não vai valer No lançamento de disco, o disco deve ter placas metálicas circulares cravadas no centro de suas faces. O lançamento de dardo só será validade somente se a ponta da cabeça metálica do dardo tocar o solo antes que qualquer outra parte. No salto com vara, o atleta pode iniciar sua corrida de aproximação na inclinação da pista oval, desde que os últimos 40 metros sejam corridos no corredor em superfície nivelada.
