This was the first time Morris and Lawes have played together (starting at the Olympic trials), but it's not the first time they've played the game.

Both of them have previously competed in the Canadian Mixed Double championships, just with different partners. Last year, Morris finished second in the Canadian championships, while partnered with Rachel Homan.

He was going to partner with Homan again for the Olympic trials, but when she won the Roar of the Rings, he had to find a new partner, and chose Lawes.
