The quest for gold has begun in Beijing with the mixed doubles competition kicking off the action. Kevin and Warren break down the opening draw results including a pair of early upset wins by China and Czech Republic plus a marquee matchup between favourites Great Britain and Sweden that did not disappoint. Warren explains if it was early-event jitters or adjusting to the ice conditions and rocks that played a factor in some uncharacteristic misses.
The guys also look ahead to why Canada will be in tough to start against Great Britain, and they make their best bets for Draws 2, 3 and 4.
