Okay here is a link. As the Link mentioned each team was 1-1 (i.e. Canada beat the Swiss, China Beat Canada, Swiss beat China)
The second tie breaker is the draw to the button.... Which was a pre-event challenge and every team is aware of the rules.

"Since each team was 1-1 within the group in round-robin play, the pre-event Draw Shot Challenge results were used for playoff seeding purposes. China, ranked first, will play Canada (second) in the Page playoff "1 versus 2" match Friday evening, with the winner advancing to Sunday's final. Switzerland (third) meets the winner of Friday's morning's tiebreaker between Japan's Moe Meguro and Denmark's Angelina Jensen (both 7-4) in the Page playoff "3 versus 4" match Friday afternoon."
