GB women shock curling world champions CanadaImage source, ReutersImage caption, The British women’s team had lost their opening two matches but roared back to beat the world championsByRichard WintonBBC Sport in CortinaPublished13 minutes agoTeam GB’s women curlers kickstarted their campaign with a superb first victory of these Winter Olympics, beating medal contenders Canada 7-6.After surrendering meekly in their opening two matches against China and South Korea, few fancied Rebecca Morrison’s rink to right the wrongs against the world champions.However, the British team raised their game significantly, with Morrison in particular making the shots that she was missing earlier in the competition, to overcome a Canadian side who looked fragile after their loss to the United States on Friday.It took until the third end for the Scottish quartet to get on the board, but after Canada skip Rachel Homan erred, Morrison kept her composure to slide in for three.Another fabulous Morrison shot in the fourth forced another mistake from Homan and allowed GB to steal, before they were into the break 4-2 up.Day-by-day guide to the Winter Olympics
