  • Curling: VM-Premiär För Lag Hasselborg Idag Lördag
    Skip Anna Hasselborg vid OS i Sydkorea 2018. Foto: © WCF Richard Gray. 2018-03-17 12:09 CET Curling: VM-premiär för lag Hasselborg idag lördag För knappt tre veckor blev lag Hasselborg olympiska mästare. Nu väntar nästa stora mästerskap för Anna Hasselborg, Sara McManus, Agnes Knochenhauer, Sofia Mabergs, Jennie Wåhlin och coach Maria Prytz. VM i North Bay, Kanada startar idag lördag och med svensk premiärmatch mot Danmark. Curling.se träffade Agnes Knochenhauer några dagar innan avresan mot VM i Kanada – Vi har haft drygt två veckor hemma efter OS-guldet. Första veckan var det mycket media och andra uppdrag men även prioritet på att vila. Nu laddar vi batterierna med tid för våra familjer och genom att vara tillbaka i träning. När vi är på plats i Kanada blir det fullt fokus mot VM och det ska bli roligt att tävla igen, säger Agnes. Nyblivna olympiska mästare, favoriter och siktet inställt på medalj även i VM – Vi har ju ingen VM-medalj så det är inget snack om vad vi går för. Men som vanligt är det många tuffa lag att möta och viktigt att vi lyckas ställa om och fokusera, säger Agnes. Curling är en av världens snabbast växande vintersporter. Det återspeglas också i VM som fr.o.m i år utökas från 12 till 13 länder. Antalet speldagar är detsamma men nu väntar 12 matcher i grundserien och sedan två eller tre matcher i slutspelet. – Det är en riktigt lång turnering med många matcher så vi måste fortsätta med att vara noggranna och ha en bra planering för att hinna ladda om mellan alla matcher, säger Agnes.
