8 Women have been disqualified from Olympics 2012 badminton doubles for throwing away their match or better put "not using one's best efforts to win". Two pairs were from South Korea and the other two were from China and Indonesia.
The cause of "playing to lose" was to avoid or substitute the team against whom they would play.
In the women's double match between Yu Yang and Wang Xiaoli from China against Jung-Kyung-eun and Kim Ha-na from South Korea, the longest rally lasted for four shots in the first game. Either of them would have faced a Chinese Side of Tian Quing and Zhao Yunlei.
Indonesia and South Korea have appealed and a decision would be made before Wednesday's quarter-finals.

Match fixing without payments... just lovely. I remember the man who had kicked the Taekwondo Referee for disqualifying him and he has been banned from the game.
Agree with the decision? or not?
