  • Tim Henman believes allegations of match-fixing in tennis have damaged the sport and he says lifetime bans should be handed out to anyone found guilty of the crime.

    The former world no.4, who is working as an ambassador for HSBC during the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship in the UAE, told Sport360: “It’s been a bad week for the sport. Match-fixing needs to be dealt with in the most severe way as possible, with lifetime bans, because it’s a crime in any sport and it’s got no place in tennis at all.”
