It said in a statement that one match at Roland
Garros and three at Wimbledon, two of them in the qualifying
tournament and one in the main draw, would be assessed and
reviewed.
Alerts are raised in response to unusual betting patterns, which
are not in themselves evidence of match-fixing and can be due to
a number of other factors, including conditions and player
fitness.
The TIU said 40 of 53 alerts received were for matches played on
the lower level men's ATP Challenger and ITF Futures circuits.
Three were on the men's ATP Tour, one on the women's WTA Tour
and five on the ITF women's circuit.
During the April-June period, 31,281 professional matches were
played.
The cumulative six month match alert figure was 83, compared to
121 received for the same period in 2016.
