NISKU, Alta. — The final day of preliminary play at the CO-OP Tour Challenge meant crunch time to qualify for the playoffs — and it's still not set with tiebreakers galore to kick off Saturday's action.
Team Brad Gushue and Team Mike McEwen will meet in an all-Canadian clash alongside Germany's Team Marc Muskatewitz versus Scotland's Team Kyle Waddell for the final two men's spots in the quarterfinals. Japan's Team Satsuki Fujisawa faces South Korea's Team Eun-ji Gim and Japan's Team Momoha Tabata takes on Sweden's Team Isabella Wranå on the women's side.
The 15-time Grand Slam of Curling champion Gushue slid into the tiebreakers after scoring four points in the seventh end to defeat Canada's Team Matt Dunstone 9-5 Friday evening in the preliminary play finale.
