Exactly. A high-profile case like that could really reinforce their credibility and show they’re serious about protecting the integrity of the sport.

So, they're the ones with the incentive to seek punishment of refs who use their sites to rig games?

I could see that. It might be great PR for FanDuel, say, to bust a corrupt sports betting ring and sue those parties for violating their terms of service.

Might the sportsbooks be a check on this corruption of the sport, since honest matches (or at least the perception of such) are in their interest?

In my opinion yes. Sports betting companies have a vested interest in maintaining the integrity of the sport. Their credibility is damaged by rigged games.
