RIO DE JANEIRO, April 19 -- Brazilian tennis player Joao Souza has been provisionally banned from the ATP world tour for the second time in less than a month as part of a corruption probe.

The 30-year-old was suspended by the Tennis Integrity Unit (TIU) on March 29 but the decision was overturned on April 8 after an appeal.

In a statement, the TIU said it reinstated the ban after considering "additional evidence". The London-based body did not give reasons for the suspension but said further appeals would not be allowed.

The ruling prevents Souza from playing in any tournament organized by the ATP or its ITF umbrella organization.

Souza, 30, is currently ranked No. 404 in the world and has a career-high ranking of 69, which he achieved in April 2017.
