China's top badminton couple put romance to one side as they began their Olympic campaigns on adjoining courts. Curiously, Lin Dan and Xie Xinfang both started at the same time and both won their first games 21-16. They then finished within two seconds of one another, Lin defeating Hong Kong's Ng Wei and Xie seeing off Belarus's Olga Konon. "I didn't know about her game," Lin told the China Daily, while a laughing Xie added: "Oh, it was not us who drew up the schedule! Ask the technical staff."
