GB women stun Canada, reigning curling world champions
At the 2026 Winter Olympics, Great Britain’s female curling team commenced their competition with a notable win, edging out Canada, a strong medal contender, by a score of 7-6.
After dropping their first two matches, the British women's team staged a comeback, defeating the reigning world champions in a remarkable turn of events.
The Team GB women's curling team secured their first win of the Winter Olympics, edging out Canada, a strong medal contender, with a 7-6 score.
Following disappointing losses to China and South Korea in their initial matches, Rebecca Morrison's team was not expected to bounce back against the world champions.
However, the British team significantly improved their performance, with Morrison making crucial shots that had eluded her earlier in the competition, ultimately overcoming a Canadian team that had appeared vulnerable after losing to the United States on Friday.
It wasn't until the third end that the Scottish team scored, but after Canada's skip, Rachel Homan, made an error, Morrison remained composed and scored three points.
Another impressive shot by Morrison in the fourth end forced Homan into a mistake, allowing GB to steal a point and take a 4-2 lead into the break.

Unlike their previous matches, where they lost momentum after the interval, the British team maintained their pace this time.
The teams traded points in the sixth and seventh ends, before Morrison, who was gaining confidence, scored two more points to give her team a four-point lead going into the penultimate end.
Canada struggled to find their footing, with Homan, who has yet to win Olympic gold despite her impressive career, unable to regain her composure. With only one point in the ninth end, they required a miraculous comeback, but GB was determined to secure the win.
The British women's team will aim to continue their surprise resurgence on Sunday when they face Sweden at 13:05 GMT.
With six more round-robin matches to play, the team is targeting five or six wins to potentially secure a semi-final spot.
Meanwhile, the GB men's team will play their fourth match of nine against the Czech Republic at 13:05 GMT on Saturday.
