Did this tactical decision really hurt other players in some way? Isn't it more fault of the system that makes losing more benefitical than winning? In this case both teams wanted to lose, as far as I know. There's no connection to betting or criminality either. And again there's no way to prove that ALL those teams were in this thing. Lozmaster, I'm not saying that it was decided by Brits, but the committee would definitely think twise about pissing off British fans in their own Olympic games.
This decision was based on assumptions and is way too controversial to go this far. Warning would have been good, but dropping 4 possible medal-candidates out of the game? That destroys Women Double's tournament for everyone.
