Bit of a shock in the Scottish nationals as former Junior Championship Team Aitken take down multi-medalled Eve Murdoch & advance to the ultra-hygienic World Championships.  In the men’s Bruce Mouat & Co win.

Great to see new teams. Aikten is a talented player who until this season focused more on mixed doubles, a few years with Mouat. I’ve played her a few times (a Tied game as best) and is not surprised that she could do well as skip Too.
