Retired tennis great John McEnroe said he is worried that the Russian mafia and other organized crime might have infiltrated professional tennis, AFP reported Friday.

"The thing that worries me is that mafia types, like the Russian mafia, could be involved. That's potentially pretty dark and scary," McEnroe told The Daily Telegraph.

McEnroe, a former No. 1 and part of the heyday of American tennis prior to the Sampras-Agassi era, said he believes players are throwing matches because of threats to themselves and their families.




pretty crazy
