The Jewish-Italian tennis player, Camila Giorgi, was questioned by the police in the last two days on the suspicion that she used fake corona vaccination certificates.

Giorgi was investigated as part of a wider affair, in the framework of which several doctors in Italy were arrested last February on suspicion of issuing fake vaccination certificates for money.



Giorgi is suspected of forgery and if found guilty, she will be punished by the Italian authorities.

But this is still not her only trouble.

At a time when there were strict restrictions, the Italian used vaccination certificates to enter countries around the world and participate in WTA tournaments.



The circuit management is following the investigation and will probably take severe sanctions such as suspension, if the Italian court convicts her.

By the way, about a year and a half ago she got sick with Corona and missed two tournaments in the USA.

30-year-old Georgie is currently ranked 66th in the world and at her peak was ranked 26th.

She was born in Italy to Jewish Argentinian parents.

In 2012, her family considered immigrating to Israel and her father said in the past that he held talks with the Israeli Tennis Association so that his daughter would move to represent Israel.



Father Sergio was a soldier in the Argentine army, fought in the Falkland War in 1982 and is known around the world as an aggressive and forceful person.

At a tournament in Italy last year, a referee at Giorgi's match called in security because of real fears that he would hurt her after he scolded her from the stands.



In addition, it was previously known that the Georgi family took out loans to finance the costs associated with the start of Camila's career, when she had not yet won significant financial prizes - but refused to pay back the money later.

After a long legal battle, the lenders and borrowers reached a compromise agreement.

Georgie, by the way, has so far won prizes in the amount of nearly 5.5 million dollars.
