Queensland Police have charged a professional tennis player with facilitating match-fixing at an ATP Challenger tournament in Victoria last year.

Isaac Frost, 28, appeared in the Brisbane Magistrates Court on Wednesday following a joint Queensland Police, Crime and Corruption Commission (CCC) and Victoria Police investigation.

It is alleged a number of suspicious bets were made on a tennis match being played at the Challenger Tournament in Traralgon, Victoria last year.

Police suspect a number of people received information the match would allegedly be fixed and bets were placed through various betting agencies.

This year the CCC has been conducting coercive hearings in relation to the investigation.

Frost was charged with facilitating match-fixing and a number of drug offences.

During Frost’s bail application the court heard he surrendered himself to police and was living with his parents.

He was granted bail and will front court again later this month.

Queensland Police Detective Superintendent Jon Wacker said match-fixing was a growing offence in Australia.

“Match-fixing pulls at the very fabric of our sporting culture and identity,” he said.

Detective Superintendent Wacker said the investigation was ongoing and urged anyone with information to contact police.
