Sorry if this was posted before but I didn't see the thread. Jan Hernych was approached in tourneys at Moscow and St. Petersburg last year to lose 1st round matches.

Nah, fixing is out of fashion now in Russia. They into food poisoning now.

Actually, it happened in 2006, prior to the poisoning era. One of Hernych's opponents in the matches in question is Russian, while the other is…..Italian

Hernych is a terrible player who would most likely lose anyway, so he doesn't even need to fix it, he is shit enough to lose first round on his talent alone.

He won both matches he was asked to throw away

But maybe they approached his opponents (Volandri and Korolev) and they agreed.
