LONDON (Reuters) - Angry gamblers were responsible for nearly half of the 12,000 abusive social-media posts aimed at tennis players this year, according to a report published on Thursday.
The study, undertaken by the International Tennis Federation (ITF), Women's Tennis Association (WTA), the All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) and the United States Tennis Association (USTA) monitored 2.47 million posts across several platforms using an artificial intelligence (AI) detection system.
