True, the men have not won a gold medal at the event since the 1976 whitewash of the world at Zoo Lake, but SA’s women have twice won the event and generally shine. This me, however, for some unfathomable reason, the men struggled throughout; the women threatened to do well in all events, but again, disappoinngly faded, leaving only the triples, who won bronze, to play near to potenal. This does not in any way suggest the Proteas played badly. Far from it, they are the best we have, deserving their places. But those armchair crics shoung for heads to roll do not see it that way (rugby, soccer, swimming, golf are treated much the same) and express the country’s insaable demand for success. Never mind the clichés and the “wise” nodding heads, other naons are allowed to play well; in bowls, if club players think clearly, they know a rub, a wick, a minute measure can change the nature of a game in a heartbeat; few codes see acute score change as can occur in a single head of bowls. In fairness, however, we did let ourselves BRONZE BEAUTIES: The South African bowls down at certain mes – but that is sport. Protea women’s triples side won bronze - a superb effort.

For more information on our Corruption in Sport Initiative, visit: www.transparency.org/sportintegrity 3.8 Malpractice in the 2010 Delhi Commonwealth Games and the renovation of Shivaji Stadium Ashutosh Kumar Mishra1 The 2010 Commonwealth Games, held in New Delhi, were marred by allegations of corruption and mismanagement, which tarnished the image of India by presenting it as a country blighted by high levels of fraud and malpractice.2 From the very beginning the event was shrouded in controversies, which continually surfaced and have still not been fully resolved. Concerns were raised during the preparatory phase, with construction work falling behind schedule and volunteers quitting in large numbers because of dissatisfaction with their assignments and with the training programme. Gross violations of workers’ rights were reported at construction sites, where workers were forced into begar.3 The conclusion of the Games brought to the fore further issues, such as the reported flouting of contracting rules by officials of the Organising Committee and the awarding of work contracts to incompetent agencies at hugely inflated prices.4 At the start it was not clear whether the Organising Committee would be covered under the national Right to Information (RTI) Act, as it did not come under the purview of the definition of ‘state’.5 Such grey areas can create a sense of immunity from rules, procedures and accountability.
