Great Britain’s Jennifer Dodds and Bruce Mouat celebrate victory during the Curling Mixed Doubles – Image source,PA MediaPreviously what we have seen is Jen Dodds playing the big shot to get the scores, but Bruce Mouat is helping here and his performance is really coming on.
I would say Team GB have controlled the ice, they are managing the weight and managing the stones.
Men’s freeski slopestyle qualifying
So that’s the first qualifying run done in the men’s freeski slopestyle.
No one was able to better the 81.75 score that Norway’s Ruud Birk set down in the very first run of the afternoon.
Team GB rider Chris McCormick’s 33.90 left him 21st but he’ll get another go shortly, with only the best run counting.
Only the top 12 go through and that 12th space is currently occupied by Frenchman Matias Roche on 54.50.
