Greysia Polii and Meiliana Jauhari were disqualified in women's doubles on suspicion of match-fixing. In the last group game they were obviously unwilling to win their game. In the event of a defeat, they would have met supposedly weaker opponents in the following round, which was played in the knockout system. Two couples from South Korea and one from the People's Republic of China were also removed from the competition. For the first time since badminton became an Olympic sport, no medals could be won.
