Marco Trungelletti also discusses about how Novak Djokovic AGTP sports is helping the lower ranked players.
Marco Trungellitti opened up about match-fixing, inequality in tennis, and more in an exclusive interview with the Argentine publication La Nacion. He talked about how Novak Djokovic had also been offered to fix matches. Trungelletti also revealed the details of how his life was impacted due to snitching. The Argentine tennis player was approached for match-fixing and was offered $100,000 to fix a match on the ATP Tour. However, being a true samaritan, Trungellitti refused the money and instead reported the incident to the Tennis Integrity Unit.

An investigation into the matter revealed that his compatriots Nicolas Kicker, Patricio Heras, and Federico Coria were involved in the crime. This led to these players being banned. The 33-year-old players’ lives turned for the worse after this incident. Instead of being celebrated, he was called a “snitch” and had to leave Buenos Aires.
The tennis star also said that after a few years, it was revealed that Novak Djokovic had also received offers from match-fixers. Other players also came out against match-fixing. Sergiy Stakhovsky, who had joined in on calling Trungellitti a snitch, also revealed that he had been offered to fix a match. All these incidents really hurt the Argentine, as he had to unfairly bear the brunt of supporting the truth.
In the interview, he said, “Djokovic said he had been offered match-fixing. Sergiy Stakhovsky, who had called me a snitch, later came out to say that he was also offered. It’s like everything fell into place, but it broke me, basically, because I didn’t expect it,” via LA NACION.
