Tough day for Canadian curling as Team Homan loses both games at Milano Cortina 2026

Rachel Homan and Team Canada squandered an early 4-0 lead and fell to a third straight loss that puts them in jeopardy of not making the playoffs in women’s curling at the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Games on Saturday.

The best women’s team in the world the last two years lost momentum halfway through the game and a veteran, resilient Team Switzerland took advantage to score four in the seventh end to hand Homan a potentially devasting 8-7 extra-end defeat.

It was the second loss of the day for Homan.
