As the slide above shows, no serious institution or regulator treats betting as “healthy” or harmless. It’s restricted everywhere, and minors can’t even take part. Yet tennis still monetises it through sponsorships, as if we’d rewound the clock to the era when motorsport could be plastered with cigarette brands (until the mid-2000s). Players are banned from betting, but the tours and the Slams aren’t, and they use that money to fund the ITIA, the body meant to police betting-related integrity.
