Skip MacDonald moved off the bottom courtesy of an 8-6 defeat of the USA in the ninth session of the round robin with a score of three in the ninth end decisive in swinging the tie in the favour.
That put them 8-5 ahead with the USA scoring just one in the tenth and final end but three-time world champion MacDonald insists they are still making too many mistakes.
"We feel better for getting that win on the board. The guys played good, a good solid performance, and it was nice to finish it off. It was good to get a win," he said.
"We made a good end in eighth to force the one and get the hammer and the guys played a really good ninth; to make a three there was great.
"We've just got to keep tightening up, and keep asking the question. To be fair, we still need to tighten up and make a few more shots, we're still making mistakes."
