Congrats to Oskar Eriksson for Gold in Men’s Curling and Bronze in Mixed Curling. Well done! :clap:

First player in history to win two olympic medals in curling at the same Olympics. Also, Eriksson lost twice to Mouat in round robin matches, but beat him twice in medal matches.

With another silver from 2018 and bronze (as alternativ) he is the most decorated olympic curler ever

BEIJING / STOCKHOLM. They have won everything that can be won.

But Team Edin has no plans to quit - but the skipper may also invest in billiards.

- I play a lot of billiards, says Niklas Edin.

Most World Cup and European Championship gold.

And now also an Olympic gold, the only thing that was missing in Lag Edin's prize locker.

The Swedes have now won everything that can be won and are one of the world's best curling teams of all time.

If the win in Beijing was the final destination for the close friends?

- No, we have not said that. We will see what the life situation looks like for us, but right now it indicates that we are tough as usual, says Oskar Eriksson and continues:

- We have not said what we want to do, we will evaluate it after the season. Right now we're just going to enjoy the moment.
"Have nothing else for me"

The next big championship is the World Cup in Las Vegas in early April.

Christoffer Sundgren also believes that there are no plans to close down.

- There is probably a lot left to win. Well, we can pull it off again. We have not actually discussed anything. But I have nothing else for me. You can make more money on an engineering job that I have studied for, but it is more fun with curling.
Can bet on billiards

However, skipper Niklas Edin may make a small career change.

To also bet on - billiards.

- Yes maybe not instead but it would be fun to combine a little, I play a lot of billiards which is a little more gentle on the body. It has also given a lot to challenge the skull a little more than curling, which is a mixture of mental and physical sports. But I will probably continue with curling as well, it's a bit too fun.

    • That is absolutely certain. Any somewhat reasonable politician should be good enough to win against someone like Trump, even with the unfortunate timing (for the Democrats) of having to carry the brunt of the COVID pandemic consequences and so any Republic having a bit of a head start anyway.   But yeah, dreadful performance overall from Harris, who seemed to start quite positively, but then just lowered herself to Trump's level in terms of throwing shit at each other. That was a terribly dumb choice, nobody is going to beat Trump at the insult game, as we have seen.
