Sarcasm aside, adding this was a complete failure. Main idea was to allow smaller nations to take part (Hungary was often mentioned for example), but it achieved absolutely nothing. And how could it with only 8 teams. 95% that the same thing happens with 3x3 basketball. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 6,536 Posted January 9, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Olympic Winter Games 2018 teams’ curling schedule published The PyeongChang 2018 Organising Committee Olympic Winter Games recently published the women’s and men’s curling teams' schedule for the upcoming Games in February 2018.

They are: Women: Canada, China, Denmark, Great Britain, Japan, Korea, Olympic Athletes from Russia, Sweden, Switzerland and United States Men: Canada, Denmark, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Korea, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and United States The tournament format will be a round-robin – three draws per day – followed by a session of tie-breakers if required, then semi-finals and finals. The round-robin will be played between 14 and 21 February. The tie-breakers will follow at 09:05 on Thursday 22 February. Also, that day will be the men’s semi-finals at 20:04.

NearPup 2,095 Posted January 20, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 20, 2018 The Canadian mixed doubles trials where kind of insane, Morris / Lawes isn't really the team anybody expected to make it out. Still, they are both going for their second Olympic gold medal and I think considering how well they played by the end of trials they have to be the favorite. To highlight just how good Kevin Martin's 2010 team was, the three players that are still active (Morris, Kennedy and Hebert) are qualified for Pyeongchang. They are three of the only four male players to ever qualify twice for Canada's Olympic curling team, the first being... Kevin Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
