This means that Schöpp, who has won this title five times previously – the first being twenty years ago – now faces defending champion Mirjam Ott from Switzerland, who moved straight to the final after her Page play-off victory against Denmark on Thursday. The women’s final takes place on Saturday morning, while the men’s final will be staged in the afternoon. And there is every chance that there will be a Swiss double. Earlier, Switzerland’s Ralph Stöckli followed up his Thursday evening play-off victory over defending champion David Murdoch of Scotland by beating Norway’s Thomas Ulsrud by 8-5 in Friday’s semi- final of the men’s event. This win books Stöckli a place opposite Sweden’s Niklas Edin in Saturday’s final. In the men’s “B” division final, the Netherlands beat Russia by 8-4,and, as well as being promoted to next year’s “A” division, they went directly into a best-of-three challenge with seventh-placed Denmark for the final European place in April’s world championship. However, Denmark won the first of these games by 6-2 on Friday evening. Latvia won the women’s “B” division after an extra end, by 7-6 over the Netherlands to gain promotion, and, in their challenge to Finland for this season’s world championship slot, they won the first game 6- 4 on Friday evening.

That’s what Team World requires today from the 110 available in the final two skins games that will conclude the World Financial Group Continental Cup at the Langley Events Centre. For a time on Saturday night, it appeared Team North America might be poised for a major comeback in 30-point skins action but only Glenn Howard was able to collect a final winner, leaving the visitors in front 170-120. Team World sends teams skipped by Bingyu Wang of China and Thomas Ulsrud of Norway into the fray today in final matches against Stefanie Lawton and Jeff Stoughton of Canada. “I would say it looks very, very good for us,” said World coach Peja Lindholm of Sweden following the Saturday ac- tion. “It’s going to be important to take every possible point that we can. We know they will have to play the carryover game, the only way to catch up in skins.

BDO Canadian Open: from the Stands Final Wrap | the Curling News February 05, 2011
PrintFriendly.com Page 1 of 4 BDO Canadian Open: From the Stands Final Wrap | The Curling News http://www.thecurlingnews.com/blog/bdo-canadian-open-from-the-stands-final-wrap/ February 05, 2011 For those who missed it – and how could you! Honestly! – the pages of The Curling News Blog were recently hijacked by curling neophyte Erin McLaughlin , a Greater Toronto Area writer, communications whiz and rather adept Twitterer. In a partnership with TCN and the Capital One Grand Slam of Curling, Ms. McLaughlin was turned loose at Oshawa’s General Motors Centre with an all-access accreditation pass and the results were rather predictable: the sport of curling has assimilated yet another hapless victim. Resistance is futile! Muahahaaaa! by Erin McLaughlin [Click on photos to increase size] Slider hangs with Team Howard before the final OSHAWA, Ontario – This is my last post regarding my incredible experience this past weekend at the 2011 BDO Canadian Open and I have to say… I’m pretty bummed. I woke up yesterday morning and realized: I would have no fun drivers to talk to on the way to work. There would no entire arena to explore, no new people to greet to and get to know in the hallways. Why can’t curling be… every day?! To be honest, when I was invited to the event I wasn ’t sure what I was going to write about, other than the draws. I thought my posts might be pretty limited to fanatical scoring (which I do at home on Twitter while watching games on TV anyway) and summarizing the crowd’s reactions.
