Curling: Mouat to meet Schwaller in another Grand Slam final

Published 1 month ago1 minute read

Team Mouat will meet Team Schwaller in the final of the Players Championship, just one week on from the pair facing off for the World Men's Curling Championship title.

The Scots progressed to another final - which will be shown live on the BBC Sport website and app - by beating world number two rink Team Jacobs 6-2.

Meanwhile, Yannick Schwaller's Swiss side set up a second showpiece encounter in the space of a week by dispatching the other Canadian semi-finalists, fourth-ranked Team Dunstone.

Schwaller's rink, currently ranked three in the world, were defeated 5-4 by Bruce Mouat and his team in a dramatic world final in Moose Jaw, Canada, and also lost 7-5 in the pool stage.

Now the Swiss will seek to right the wrongs of those losses in Sunday's final in Toronto, which will be played at 21:00 BST.

Team Schwaller finished above Team Mouat in Pool A, with both teams winning four and losing once.

Ross Whyte's rink were the only team to defeat their follow Scots at the pool stage but failed to reach the play-offs.
