GANGNEUNG, Korea, Republic Of — Canada’s Jennifer Jones and Brent Laing suffered their first loss of the world mixed doubles curling championship on Sunday in South Korea.

The duo fell 7-4 to Estonia’s Marie Kaldvee and Harri Lill.

Canada went up 3-1 after three ends. However, that lead disappeared with singles in each of the next two from Estonia.

After restoring their lead at 4-3 through the sixth end, the Canadians surrendered deuces in the final two ends to take the loss.

Canada opened round-robin play with a pair of wins over Scotland and the Netherlands on Saturday.
