Olympics badminton: Eight women disqualified from doubles
Eight badminton players have been disqualified from the women's doubles competition after being accused of "not using one's best efforts to win". Two pairs from South Korea and one each from China and Indonesia made a series of basic errors in Tuesday's matches. All four pairs were accused of wanting to lose, in an attempt to manipulate the draw for the knockout stage.

Wiggins is a machine. he was`nt even out of breath so impressive. :)) Best of British Bradley Wiggins (cycling): seven medals - four gold, one silver, two bronze Sir Steve Redgrave (rowing): six - five gold, one bronze Sir Chris Hoy (track cycling): five - four gold, one silver Jack Beresford (rowing): five - three gold, two silver Henry Taylor (swimming): five - three gold, two bronze Matthew Pinsent (rowing): four - four gold Paulo Radmilovic (water polo): four - four gold Ben Ainslie (sailing): four - three gold, one silver He looks so chilled out and relaxed. You would think he had been sitting at the poolside for the last hour, not racing through the streets of London.
Well done Chris Froome as well. |
