Switzerland’s Tirinzoni wins fourth-straight World Women's Curling Championship
Published
Silvana Tirinzoni and Team Switzerland defeated Norway's Team Marianne Roervik, 6-3, on Sunday to capture their fourth-consecutive gold medal at the World Women’s Curling Championship.
Tirinzoni along with fourth Alina Paetz, second Carole Howald, and lead Briar Schwaller-Huerlimann, went undefeated at the tournament and have now won 36 straight games at the women's worlds, with their last loss coming to Sweden inside the Calgary bubble in 2021.
In the tenth end, Norway's Kristin Skaslien had a draw to tie the game and force an extra end but her shot came up short to hand Switzerland a steal of two and the 6-3 victory.
Canada defeated Sweden 8-5 earlier on Sunday to capture the bronze.
