Eight top women badminton players from China, South Korea and Indonesia were disqualified from the Olympics for deliberately throwing games to secure a more favorable draw in the next round.

- The leaders of the three countries denied it, calling it a “Shuttle Cock and Bull Story”. 

- This reminds me of the great “Croquet Steroid Scandal” in the 1932 games.
