Great Britain’s men face Canada in Saturday’s curling final at the 2026 Winter Olympics.
GB’s men slumped to a 9-5 defeat by Canada on Tuesday evening following the controversy that erupted over the weekend with cheating accusations made against the Canadian team, but they hit back in style against the USA on Wednesday afternoon, winning 9-2 after just six ends to remain in the hunt for a medal.
Bruce Mouat’s rink required help from elsewhere to seal a top-four spot, needing either Norway or Italy to lose their final match on Thursday morning. Italy obliged by losing 9-5 to unbeaten Switzerland, while Norway beat already-qualified Canada to seal the final qualifying spot, one place above GB.
Britain then saw off Switzerland 8-5 in the semi-finals to guarantee at least silver – which they won in Beijing four years ago.
Team GB’s women however were narrowly edged out of the top four. Having snatched the most remarkable of 8-7 victories against the USA on Wednesday morning before thrashing Japan 9-3 in the evening and beating Italy 7-4 on Thursday, they needed Switzerland to beat the US to guarantee their progression.
But the Americans sealed a remarkable 7-6 victory in an extra end to condemn Britain to a group stage defeat.
When is the men’s curling final?
Team GB take on Canada at 6.05pm GMT (7.05pm local time) on Saturday 21 February.
