I actually think they could medal. And I really want them too. Very nice people besides the ice.

Thanks a lot bro. Of course,  it would be very nice. I am sure their skill might be there. Just need to pull up the best performance during the games. Let's see. We go step by step ..... Today's match was fantastic.

Interesting, the only undefeated teams so far are China and Italy (2-0) while the only winless team is Australia (0-3).

China just lost to Sweden 6:7 as Sweden played an amazing 8th end with 3 stones

Yeah, it's not surprising they are undefeated, its more about them being the only one.  It'll be interesting to see how things turn out.

It's just 2-3 games for each team. Nothing has been decided yet. Of course, it's a surprise that Italy is only undefeated team as we would expect that from  or  ...... Hopefully,  will take the status away from them tomorrow :-D

Stefania Constantini MVP of the day for me.  Italy starting the Games like it's 2021. Her partner was there too i guess. 

 

Haven't watched much of this mixed couple variation of curling and i'm not that impressed tbh. Lot's of mistakes (could be because the ice is very weird apparently, which leads to a very messy gameplay. It did help for some comebacks though.
