Russian tennis player reportedly arrested on suspicion of match-fixing at 2020 French Open

A tennis player suspected of match-fixing last year has been arrested during the French Open, the Paris prosecutor's office said Friday. According to French newspaper Le Parisien, which first reported the story, the player is 765th-ranked Yana Sizikova of Russia.

The Reuters news agency also reported Sizikova was arrested, citing the French tennis federation and a police source. The prosecutor's office confirmed to The Associated Press that a "women's international player" was in custody, but it did not identify her. The player was arrested Thursday night on charges of "sports bribery and organized fraud for acts likely to have been committed in September 2020," the prosecutor's office said.
