When a match is useful for positioning and nothing else, the door is open for nefariousness. The torrent of skullduggery began after one of China?s two women?s doubles teams?Zhao Yunlei and Tian Qing?lost to Denmark?s Christinna Pedersen and Kamilla Rytter Juhl by the score of 22-20, 21-12. That shocking result meant the two Chinese teams?the tournament favorites?would meet in the semifinals of the knockout round rather than the gold-medal game, depriving China of the chance to win both gold and silver. China?s only hope of putting two teams in the finals, then was for the country?s other team of Wang Xiaoli and Yu Yang to lose, thus pushing themselves to the opposite side of the bracket. Once their South Korean opponents saw what the Chinese were up to, they decided it was also in their best interest to lose?that a defeat would give them better medal-round matchups as well.
