A good read: Australian charges: the difficulty in preventing match-fixing in table tennis

Quote
An investigation by police and Sport Integrity Australia has led to charges being issued against a former Australian table tennis player for utilising information about fixed table tennis games in Eastern Europe. However, analysis of these tournaments and the sheer number of games and participants involved illustrates that sport faces an almost impossible task policing against match-fixing during such events.

In May last year, licensed bookmaker William Hill told the Las Vegas Review Journal that table tennis had been its number one sport during the Covid-19 pandemic, and close to US$1 million in bets were being placed on Russian table tennis daily at the time.

There's something fishy here, 99.999999999% winning rate is not possible. Especially with odds over 2! Looks like table tennis became a paradise for match-fixers, I guess it's because not so popular and they are somehow under the radar, not many people follow or watch it, so there's a lot of space for manipulation.
