That makes sense on the 3 way tie. The women seem to be getting their confidence going, though watching today they still missed a lot of shots it seemed like and maybe got a bit lucky. I'm just a total hack amateur curler that started only a few years ago who has never really watched it on tv but I'm amazed how much these top curlers still struggle with draw weight. As good as their takeouts and peels are, which is something as an amateur you don't see, I really don't see a lot of people in my league throw the rock straight through the house yet it seems to happen quite often here.
Also nobody's been perfect but the lady who is the third on Canada just really seems to be struggling to my eye, also I don't mean to be personal but she looks incredibly slight and unathletic and doesn't really seem to be a good sweeper either? I am sure she has had some crazy good curling events in the past to make it here though but seems a bit out of place on the eye test.
For me as someone who is new to the sport it's been really cool watching and seeing their technique and strategy though. Beer league level up haha.
