Heartbreaking: Fans Stunned As Announces Resignation and Departure….see…more…

The Canadian team has embraced the grind of an unforgiving schedule at the world women’s curling championship. The wins keep on coming no matter when the Ottawa-based foursome is playing.

Rachel Homan skipped the host side to a 7-2 victory over Japan’s Miyu Ueno and a 9-5 win over Turkey’s Dilsat Yildiz on Wednesday to remain unbeaten at 8-0 in Sydney, N.S.

The morning victory came after a win over Switzerland’s Silvana Tirinzoni the previous night.

Returning to Centre 200 to face a young Japanese side skipped by the 2022 world junior champion, the Canadian team of Homan, Tracy Fleury, Emma Miskew and Sarah Wilkes took a few ends to adjust to the straighter ice on their sheet.

A defensive battle ensued with Canada breaking things open with three points in the eighth end. Miskew helped set things up by leaving two stones under partial cover to pressure the Japanese side.
