We can crack at times, the lure of profit is tempting, France 2 reveals a striking report on sports betting

Sports betting is a real scourge in the world of sports, leading to numerous excesses such as addiction or financial loss, among others. A topic often swept under the rug but increasingly brought to light in recent years, as illustrated by the report aired on France 2.

The report features testimonies from players like Grégoire Barrère, for example, as well as former bettors seeking to rig match outcomes:

"We can crack at times. We’re supposed to, in quotes, know what not to do. Yes, the lure of profit is tempting, but it’s not the right thing to do. But as long as sports betting remains allowed in these kinds of tournaments where there’s zero money to be won, there’s a strong chance it will happen again," an anonymous former tennis player told a France Télévisions journalist over the phone.
