Serving up a scandal: In the wake of suspicious betting patterns in a match in which Nikolay Davydenko retired with a foot injury, top doubles player Bob Bryan says a number of top ATP players have been contacted about throwing matches.

How crazy and obvious this was. Did the informant tell everybody that Davydenko was in pain, so that there would be massive amounts of betting? It seems amateurish. I suspect either someone in the medical professional or someone else who knew that Davydenko was in pain. The ATP needs to find someone and fast, this looks really bad.
