Olympic wake-up call: Jennifer Jones' streak ends, Mark McMorris sounds off about scoring

Jennifer Jones saw her unbeaten streak at the Olympic Games come to an end on Friday, with an 8-5 loss to Japan.

The six-time Canadian champion and two-time world champion struggled to make shots, curling 66 per cent, while Japanese skip Satsuki Fujisawa was dominant helping Japan steal three points through the first five ends.

Canada moved to 1-1 on the tournament, and will face Sweden (1-1) next on Friday at 8:05 p.m. ET. You can catch all the action on the CBC Sports app, CBC Gem or at CBCSports.ca.

Graeme Fish was the top Canadian in the men's 10,000 metres, but no racer was a match for Sweden's Nils van der Poel who broke his own world record en route to his second gold medal of the 2022 Beijing Olympic Winter Games.

Van der Poel was by and far in another class on Friday, winning the race by a wide 13-second margin over Dutch skater Patrick Roest, and posting faster times in each of his remaining five laps.

The 24-year-old Fish, from Moose Jaw, Sask., finished in 12 minutes 58.8 seconds in his Olympic debut.

Calgary's Ted-Jan Bloeman, the defending Olympic champion in the event, finished in eighth place.

During the race, Bloemen was seen communicating back to his coach – which is rare in the sport.

Speaking with CBC Sports' Anastasia Bucsis, Bloemen said he was trying to gauge whether to ease up to save energy for the team pursuit qualification on Sunday.
