Yep, he choked on the big stage a few times before finally breaking through.

Just watched the replay of the American women blowing it against GB giving up two in the tenth with the hammer. What was with that last shot? Why not throw a draw to the button? The angle was there, it was open.

They should be tried for treason.

Why didn’t they clear two reds with the last shot? Swiss needed 3 to tie so clearing 1 and leaving 2 gave them a path

Might miss stolz race cuz of this

I don’t profess to be knowledgeable about curling, but up three in the last, why would you just not peel off every stone the Swiss throw from the beginning. If you don’t miss they can’t get two, much less three.

I think there is a rule that says you can't knock stones out of the scoring circle until a certain number have been played (I think 4 by each side)

They’re playing like they are trying to get 2 instead of 1 right now. Remove the fricking stones. It’s not hard.

If that’s the case then the only part of my comment that’s relevant is I’m not knowledgeable about curling.

From a few pages back in this thread:
quote:
Under the current Five-Rock Rule (adopted in 2018), teams cannot remove an opponent's stones located in the Free Guard Zone (FGZ) until the first five rocks of an end have been played. If a guard is removed before this, the thrown rock is removed, and all other stones are replaced.
Key details of the rule:
The Rule: The first 5 rocks of an end (3 by the team without hammer, 2 by the team with hammer) cannot be knocked out of play.
Free Guard Zone: This is the area between the hog line and the house.
Penalty: If an opposing guard is knocked out of play, the played stone is removed, and the guard is placed back.
Strategy: This rule forces teams to keep more rocks in play, reducing blank ends and encouraging more offensive strategies.
Exceptions: A team may remove their own guard, or move an opponent's guard within the FGZ, but cannot remove it entirely.
