‘We are definitely a playoffs team’ - Eve Muirhead predicts best to come after GB reach semis
Team GB skip Eve Muirhead has praised the never say die spirit of her curling rink and says the knockout phase suits them after they snuck through to the women’s semi-finals at the Winter Olympics through a win and a tie-break. Starting the final day of round robin matches with their medal hopes hanging by a thread, they needed to beat the Russian Olympic Committee and hope other results went their way. They achieved the first part of that, winning 9-4 thanks in part to a brilliant ninth end from Muirhead to secure four points.
