Andy Murray has re-iterated that his comments on betting were taken out of context.
Betting - not fixing - goes on, claims British number one
Andy Murray has stated once again that his comments on alleged corruption in tennis were taken out of context.
The British number one was quoted last week as saying that 'everyone knows' that match-fixing goes on in the sport.
His comments followed several high-profile admissions from his fellow professionals that they had been offered money to throw matches.
However, Murray has sought to clarify his position, saying that he was referring to betting, and not match-fixing.
Out of context
Asked about the incident at a press conference ahead of the Madrid Masters the 20-year-old Scot said: "It was taken out of context, I never said once that players fixed matches and that players were involved directly in betting on matches.
"I did say that there was a lot of betting in tennis and everyone knows that betting within tennis is going on.
"Three or four of the players have said that they've been offered bribes, and I definitely said that that stuff goes on but whether players are accepting the money or not, nobody's been found guilty and until they have I don't think tennis matches have been fixed. I never said that.
"I know what I've said and I've spoken to a couple of other players about it and I don't think what I said is as big of an issue as has been made out."
Murray, who will face Radek Stepanek in the first round of the Madrid Masters, is due to meet with the ATP this week regarding his comments.
"I think they understand what happened. I think I am going to meet with them on Tuesday just to have chat about it, but I've spoken to a couple of them, there's no problem," Murray added.
