  • World Curling Championships Firsts Victorian Curling Association – Saturday, 01 MAY 2010
    World Curling Championships Firsts Victorian Curling Association – Saturday, 01 MAY 2010 IN an exciting match that required an extra end, Australia defeated Switzerland to claim the bronze medal in the senior men’s world curling championship last week in Chelyabinsk, Russia. This is Australia’s first ever medal in the World Curling Championships, in an event that was full of firsts. In the mixed doubles competition New Zealand faced the host nation in the gold medal game. In front of a crowd of over 1500, the Russians took the gold; the first World Curling Championship for Russia and the first world curling medal for New Zealand. The bronze medal game was also quite exciting, requiring an extra end for China to defeat Spain. Playing in both the senior men’s and the mixed doubles competitions, Australian skip Hugh Millikin said the tournament was tiring. “I played 15 games over 7 days, and mixed doubles is very physical as you sweep just about every rock.” Playing in both competitions, Millikin faced a couple of scheduling conflicts where he had to leave the senior’s competition to join his mixed doubles partner. Kim Forge was attending her first World Curling Championships, “after some initial nerves, she played extremely well. If we didn’t run into a very hot Russian team, a medal was a possibility.” Speaking about the senior men’s competition, Millikin said, “A great performance with team Canada was pleasure to be a part of. Then the bronze medal game was close from the first rock to the last.” A last shot draw in the eighth end put Australia in the position of having to steal for the win in the extra end.

Scotland’s David Murdoch was always in control against Sweden’s Niklas Edin and eventually, after blanking five ends, delivered a hack-weight tap-out of a Swedish counter to leave another of his stones lying shot for a 3-2 win. Later Switzerland’s Mirjam Ott edged out Norway’s Marianne Rørvik to start her campaign with a 6-4 win. Elsewhere in the men’s opening session, Germany’s Andy Kapp had an 8-5 win over Ulrik Schmidt’s Danish team, thanks largely to a score of three in the second end, while Thomas Dufour led France to a 6-5 win over Italy’s Stefano Ferronato. The other two games in the men’s opening round both went to extra ends, with Finland’s Toni Rantamäki taking the single needed to beat Jiri Snítel of the Czech Republic by 9-8, as did Thomas Ulsrud of Norway against Switzerland’s Ralph Stöckli for his 8-7 win. In the women’s games, Germany’s Andrea Schöpp took an early three against Sweden’s reigning Olympic champion Anette Norberg and held off the second-half Swedish pressure to win by 7-4.
