MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Briton Daniel Dobson, who was arrested at the Australian Open on Tuesday for "conduct that would corrupt a betting outcome", had his case adjourned until January 23 at Melbourne Magistrates Court on Thursday, local media reported.

Dobson, 22, was arrested on court two at Melbourne Park and discovered to have a device in his shorts which would enable him to transmit the results of points before they were officially distributed around the world, the court heard.
