Thanks, CLELY. Here's the schedule from 13 to 20 August from the official Rio's website. I did not include the schedule for the first two days of the tournament, ie 11 and 12 of August.
Rio 2016 Official Website has released badminton daily schedule : https://www.rio2016.com/en/badminton-schedule-and-results Mixed doubles reigning Olympic Champion Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei v Michael Fuchs/Birgit Michels will be the opening match in Riocentro - Pavilion 4 on 11th August (08.00am local time).
The daily schedule is also available through ts.com => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...00A457-E0A4-4C87-89CA-C9A6CF1B2C0D&d=20160811
But you only have to get up early for those matches you want to see, prolly the later rounds and if LD/LCW are KO, you can sleep in
Tomorrow (11th August), 08.00am local time, 3 courts : - https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...00A457-E0A4-4C87-89CA-C9A6CF1B2C0D&d=20160811 - https://www.rio2016.com/en/badminton
Nothing much interesting, other than Xu/MA vs Adcocks, and Chang YeNa and Lee SoHee vs Stoeva sisters.
Now, on Aug 13, things start to get more interesting with MD, where KOR vs DEN, INA vs CHN, CHN vs MAS, and KOR vs RUS. But this is still group stages, so there won't be all out battle if they have enough points to advance.
Yeah, at the group stage, the fancied players can afford not to go all out, instead conserving energy and avoiding injury is a good thing. At the knock-out stage, it's all systems go, only slackening a bit if having an insurmountable lead, until the finals where they'll play their guts out.
