Chinese team has confirmed their badminton squad:

 

MS: Chen Long, Lin Dan

WS: Li Xuerui, Wang Yihan

MD: Fu Haifeng/Zhang Nan, Chai Biao/Hong Wei

WD: Luo Ying/Luo Yu, Yu Yang/Tang Yuanting

XD: Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei, Xu Chen/Ma Jin

 

With the Luo twins selected, it means Tian Qing must stay at home. Plus, one WS quota is abolished (because Zhao Yunlei only play in XD) which means Akvile Stapusaityte won't be competing at the Olympics

Wow, they are allowed to make changes and thus kick out Lithuanian player less than 20 days before Rio?
