Curling is one of the most popular events of the Winter Olympics 2022 and it could be about to become the most important one of all from a Team GB perspective.
It has been a disappointing Games across the board from a British perspective as the wait for a medal of any colour goes on, at the time of writing.
That barren streak could end should Team GB continue to impress in the men’s and women’s curling events.

Bruce Mouat has guided his men’s team to the top of the standings with one round robin match left to play. They have won seven of eight matches so far and sit joint-top of the table alongside Sweden.
However, Eve Muirhead’s hunt for an elusive Olympic gold has been a more challenging one in the women’s event. Her team sits fifth in the standings going into the last round of matches with four wins and four losses so far.
Team GB’s women face the rock-bottom Russian Olympic Committee, a more favourable match-up than rivals around them. Victory in that one would not guarantee a semi-final place; they would still require results elsewhere to fall in their favour.
