British number one Andy Murray said he was satisfied after a meeting with ATP investigators yesterday about his recent comments over possible corruption in tennis.

"I didn't tell them anything new," he told reporters at the Madrid Masters. "They weren't really gathering information, they were just finding out exactly what happened, so I explained it to them.

"I don't know anything new, if I did it would have been a different story."

Asked if the ATP were going to take any further action, Murray replied: "They've already said in the press that they were going to start up an anti-corruption unit."

Cricket - New Zealand's McMillan retires

New Zealand all rounder Craig McMillan is retiring from cricket for health and personal reasons. McMillan, 31, said he wanted to end his career on a high after strong performances in the recent Twenty20 World Cup, in which he was New Zealand's highest scorer.

"I have decided that the time is right for me to retire from cricket to spend more time with my family, as well as look after my health, as I have had ongoing issues related to diabetes," McMillan said in a statement.

New Zealand Cricket said it would release McMillan from his contract on compassionate grounds.

McMillan made his international debut in 1997 and was a flamboyant and aggressive, but inconsistent, batsman and a useful medium pace bowler.

Rugby - Mandela invited to World Cup final

Former South African president Nelson Mandela has been invited to attend this weekend's World Cup final between the Springboks and England.

South Africa coach Jake White said the current President Thabo Mbeki had already confirmed he would attend the match and there was a chance Mandela might also go to Paris if he was healthy enough to make the trip.

"I can confirm that Mbeki will attend," White said. "When Madiba (Mandela) was (recently) staying in Paris for his children's foundation, we visited him and gave him a number two jersey.

"An invitation was extended there that he was more than welcome to come and join us in the week of the final."

Boxing - Egyptian boxers abandon team

Two Egyptian heavyweight boxers abandoned their team-mates and disappeared after arriving in the United States for the World Boxing Championships, the official Middle East News Agency (MENA) said.

Wael Talaat, director of the Egyptian Boxing Association, said Emad Abdel-Halim and Ahmed Samir went missing shortly after the team arrived at a US airport, the agency reported.

He did not say why the two boxers had fled, but several Egyptian athletes, mainly boxers and wrestlers, have done the same in the past to seek better career opportunities in developed countries.

The World Boxing Championships are due to take place in Chicago between October 23 and November 3.
