Canadians suffer first loss at mixed doubles curling worlds, 8-5 to Scotland
GENEVA — Scotland dealt Canada its first loss at the 2026 mixed doubles curling championship with an 8-5 victory in Tuesday’s late draw.
Katie McMillan and Angus Bryce broke open a 3-3 tie with three points in the fifth end.
Kadriana and Colton Lott of Gimli, Man., responded with two in the sixth end before the Scottish duo cemented the win with two in the seventh.
Earlier, Canada posted a 10-7 win over Hungary. Dorottya Udvardi-Palancsa and Lorinc Tatar took an early 4-3 lead when they scored four in the second end. But the Lotts responded with four of their own in the third and stole another in the fourth en route to the win.
Canada finished Tuesday tied for top spot in Group B with Italy at 5-1, though the Canadians hold the tiebreaker after beating the defending champions 6-5 on Monday.
Canada returns to the ice on Wednesday against Germany (4-2).
