Sweden’s veteran men’s curling team finally got to the top of the Olympic podium with a win over Great Britain in the gold medal game Saturday.
Edin said before the game he and the Swedish team would need to use their experience to win Saturday’s Olympic finals. Both teams tried for an analytical approach to the contest, with Sweden blanking the fifth and sixth ends and Great Britain blanking the ninth, in hopes that holding onto hammer would give them more of a statistical advantage later in the game.In the tenth, Great Britain, trailing 4-3, was sitting a stone in the edge of the 8-foot circle.
Mouat’s runback attempt spun and went over the top of Sweden’s shot stone, leaving it in place, and ultimately giving Sweden the win. Great Britain needed a big sweep after Mouat’s fourth end hammer throw seemed light out of the hack. Sweepers Bobby Lammie and Hammy McMillan gave it everything they had, and it was just enough to be closer by inches for a point for GBR that cut Sweden’s lead to one, 3-2.
