Team Canada has clinched a playoff spot at the World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship in Oestersund, Sweden after finishing the preliminary round with an 8-1 record.

Kadriana Lott and Colton Lott secured second place in Group B with an 11-4 win over Australia in their penultimate round robin game on Thursday. They closed out the preliminary round later in the day with a huge 12-6 victory over Becca Hamilton and Matt Hamilton of the United States. Tied at six through six ends, the Canadian duo scored six in the seventh end to prompt handshakes from the American brother-sister pair.

With just one loss blemishing their week, the Lotts ended up with the same 8-1 record as Sweden. However, the Swedes held the tiebreaker for first place in the group after handing the Canadians their sole loss on Tuesday. Scotland took third place in the group with six wins and three losses.

Lott and Lott, a husband-wife duo from Gimli, Manitoba, are competing at their first world championship after winning the Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Championship last month. They had twice been the runners-up at the national championship in 2018 and 2021.

They opened the worlds on Saturday with a 7-2 win in six ends against New Zealand. They were victorious twice on Sunday, defeating Czechia 8-3 in six ends before shutting out the Netherlands 11-0 in six ends. On Monday, the Lotts came away from a tight match against South Korea with a 6-4 win in seven ends.

There was a memorable moment in Tuesday’s morning’s first match when the Canadians put a score of six on the board in the seventh end against Scotland, giving them a 12-5 victory. But that evening, Sweden ended their undefeated run with the 6-5 win — the first Canadian game to go the full eight ends.

But the Lotts bounced right back on Wednesday, getting a 10-4 win over China that was finalized with a steal of four in the final end.

For the playoffs that start on Friday, Canada will cross over to play Estonia, who finished third in Group A with a 6-3 record. The winner will face Norway in the semifinals. The Norwegians got the bye from Group A after finishing with a 7-2 record. In the other qualification game, Scotland will play Switzerland, who also finished with six wins and three losses, to see who advances to take on Sweden in the semis.

The bronze and gold medal matches will take place on Saturday.

“This is where we have to be at our best and we know that going forward, we just have to leave it all out there and give it all we have, said Colton Lott.”

Canada has never won gold at the World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship since it was first held in 2008, a decade before mixed doubles debuted on the Olympic program at PyeongChang 2018.

Four Canadian duos have won world championship medals, most recently a silver by Brett Gallant and Jocelyn Peterman in 2019. Kirk Muyres and Laura Walker won bronze in 2018 after Reid Carruthers and Joanne Courtney took silver in 2017. Sean Grassie and Allison Nimik won bronze back in 2009.

Last year, Jennifer Jones and Brent Laing finished fourth, as did Brad Gushue and Kerri Einarson in 2021.

Final placements at this year’s worlds will be combined with those of the 2025 World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship to determine the first eight countries that will qualify for the Olympic mixed doubles curling tournament at Milano Cortina 2026 .

The 2023-24 Season of Champions has come to a close.

25 April 2024

Play-off field complete at World Mixed Doubles

The round-robin stage of the World Mixed Doubles Championship concluded on Thursday and, after yet another day of intense competition, the play-off scenario is now determined, as is the situation in the relegation zone.

The Group A teams were first to complete their round-robin programme and, on Thursday afternoon, Switzerland had their play-off qualification confirmed as they started their game against Japan. 

There had been a remote possibility that – depending on results – Last Stone Draw figures could see them eliminated, but that disappeared before the game.

In the seventh end, with the game tied at 5-5, Japan’s Ueno Miyu had a chance to score four, but her hit went wrong, and she had to settle for three and an 8-5 lead.

Japan then won by 8-7 to finish in fifth place, while Switzerland are ranked as second. Switzerland will now face Scotland – the third-placed team from Group B – in a qualification play-off.

Estonia played France. In the seventh end, with Estonia leading by 5-3, their female player Marie Kaldvee played a hit to score three and take an 8-3 lead. 

France then conceded, and this result means that Estonia rank third overall in Group A and now go onto a qualification game against Canada from Group B. 

Meanwhile, France finished ninth on the rankings and now face Australia in a relegation game to try to secure their spot in next year’s world championship.

After this game, Estonia’s Marie Kaldvee said, “It wasn’t easy. It took us to some do-or-die games, but we’ve made our first goal.” 

Her partner Harri Lill added, “We haven’t played our best this week, but we can improve. We’ve made it to the play-offs, and we’ve played ok, but there’s definitely more in us. We can beat anyone; we just need to play our best.”

Spain were up against already-qualified Norway. In the eighth end, Norway led by 7-3 when Spain’s Oihane Otaegi got a raise double take-out attempt wrong and gave up a steal of two to Norway, who then won by 9-3. 

This seventh win by Norway sees them top the group rankings to take the direct route to the semi-finals. This loss means that Spain are at the foot of the group and are now relegated to next season’s World Mixed Doubles Qualification Event.

Italy faced Germany in this session. Italy led by 7-6 as the teams played the eighth end. In this end, Italy’s Stefania Constantini played a take-out to score one, enough to give her an 8-6 win.

Although they had the same won six, lost three record as Estonia and Japan, they lost out on a play-off place because Estonia had beaten both teams. Italy finished fourth, while Germany finished sixth in the group.

Scotland won this game by 8-4 to finish the round robin in third place. Scotland will meet Switzerland in a qualification game on Friday morning.

Canada beat United States by 12-6 to finish second in the group and now face Estonia in the play-offs. This result also means that the Americans finished in fifth place.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Touring the Top 10 Moscow Metro Stations

By Claudia Looi 2 Comments

Komsomolskaya metro station

Komsomolskaya metro station looks like a museum. It has vaulted ceilings and baroque decor.

Hidden underground, in the heart of Moscow, are historical and architectural treasures of Russia. These are Soviet-era creations – the metro stations of Moscow.

Our guide Maria introduced these elaborate metro stations as “the palaces for the people.” Built between 1937 and 1955, each station holds its own history and stories. Stalin had the idea of building beautiful underground spaces that the masses could enjoy. They would look like museums, art centers, concert halls, palaces and churches. Each would have a different theme. None would be alike.

The two-hour private tour was with a former Intourist tour guide named Maria. Maria lived in Moscow all her life and through the communist era of 60s to 90s. She has been a tour guide for more than 30 years. Being in her 60s, she moved rather quickly for her age. We traveled and crammed with Maria and other Muscovites on the metro to visit 10 different metro stations.

To Maria, every street, metro and building told a story. I couldn’t keep up with her stories. I don’t remember most of what she said because I was just thrilled being in Moscow.   Added to that, she spilled out so many Russian words and names, which to one who can’t read Cyrillic, sounded so foreign and could be easily forgotten.

The metro tour was the first part of our all day tour of Moscow with Maria. Here are the stations we visited:

1. Komsomolskaya Metro Station  is the most beautiful of them all. Painted yellow and decorated with chandeliers, gold leaves and semi precious stones, the station looks like a stately museum. And possibly decorated like a palace. I saw Komsomolskaya first, before the rest of the stations upon arrival in Moscow by train from St. Petersburg.

2. Revolution Square Metro Station (Ploshchad Revolyutsii) has marble arches and 72 bronze sculptures designed by Alexey Dushkin. The marble arches are flanked by the bronze sculptures. If you look closely you will see passersby touching the bronze dog's nose. Legend has it that good luck comes to those who touch the dog's nose.

3. Arbatskaya Metro Station served as a shelter during the Soviet-era. It is one of the largest and the deepest metro stations in Moscow.

4. Biblioteka Imeni Lenina Metro Station was built in 1935 and named after the Russian State Library. It is located near the library and has a big mosaic portrait of Lenin and yellow ceramic tiles on the track walls.

5. Kievskaya Metro Station was one of the first to be completed in Moscow. Named after the capital city of Ukraine by Kiev-born, Nikita Khruschev, Stalin's successor.

6. Novoslobodskaya Metro Station  was built in 1952. It has 32 stained glass murals with brass borders.

7. Kurskaya Metro Station was one of the first few to be built in Moscow in 1938. It has ceiling panels and artwork showing Soviet leadership, Soviet lifestyle and political power. It has a dome with patriotic slogans decorated with red stars representing the Soviet's World War II Hall of Fame. Kurskaya Metro Station is a must-visit station in Moscow.

8. Mayakovskaya Metro Station built in 1938. It was named after Russian poet Vladmir Mayakovsky. This is one of the most beautiful metro stations in the world with 34 mosaics painted by Alexander Deyneka.

9. Belorusskaya Metro Station is named after the people of Belarus. In the picture below, there are statues of 3 members of the Partisan Resistance in Belarus during World War II. The statues were sculpted by Sergei Orlov, S. Rabinovich and I. Slonim.
