Apr 22, 2024 | 9:39 AM

ÖSTERSUND, Sweden — Canada’s Kadriana and Colton Lott remained undefeated at the world mixed doubles curling championship with a 6-4 win over South Korea on Monday.

The husband-and-wife tandem from Gimli, Man., fell behind 3-0 early as Jiyoon Kim and Byeongjin Jeong scored singles in each of the first three ends.

Kadriana Lott responded with a key draw in the fourth end to score three and tie the game.

She then executed a difficult takeout to remove a South Korean shot stone in the fifth end that left Canada sitting two. 

Kim was light on her last-shot draw and Canada stole a deuce for a lead it would not relinquish.
