8 Sep 2010
Higgins must pay $75,000 for breaking rules and failing to report a dodgy approach, the report said.
Higgins said he feared intimidation from Russian gangsters but had no intention of fixing a snooker match, according to the Daily Mail.
Higgins admitted he failed to "report the approach promptly to World Snooker", the Daily Mail report said.
