Looks like it was a 'joke' by some online magazine? I can't imagine the actual Metallica was involved in it, that would suck so bad. Worst April Fool's joke I've seen.
Playa del Carmen Elite16
Women’s Tournament
Gold- Carol Solberg/Rebecca Cavalcanti
Silver- Terese Cannon/Megan Kraft
Bronze- Kristen Nuss/Taryn Brasher
Shoutout to my new favourite pairing of Hüberli/Kernen, who have backed up their silver at the Yucatán Challenge by recording a quarterfinal finish here by defeating Olympic Champions Duda/Ana Patricia in straight sets in the round of 12 (to be fair, they looked off all event long, but they also beat Nuss/Brasher). This team definitely has what it takes to be a top 5 team and consistently contending for medals. First time watching Kernen play, all I can say is how is she that good at only 19? She’s gonna be a star in the future.
Men’s Tournament

So I was watching a replay of China-Germany in between Canada’s game against Sweden and this one against Italy and… it seems like China cheated during it which could’ve been critical in them winning the match?
During the 1st end, Xu with his last rock had an easy hit for the single against three German stones. One of the sweepers for China (I can’t tell which one, this team is quite new to me) “accidentally” kicked their own stone, which redirected one of their own stones into the rings, and Germany only got the steal of 2.
HIS FUCKING FOOT IS TOUCHING THE ROCK
Now after, Team Xu was claiming that the stone was picked (it was not) and Muskatewitz was arguing that it couldn’t possibly have been picked. China wouldn’t admit it, and they ended up winning the game 10-9. BOO.
Hope these cheaters don’t qualify for the Olympics.
