'Absolutely fantastic' - Team GB celebrate reaching curling final after win over USA
Great Britain are guaranteed at least a silver medal from the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games.
The whole country was able to breathe a huge sigh of relief as Team GB’s men’s curling team overcame the USA in their semi-final match to reach the gold medal decider.
Until now, the Brits have failed to trouble the medal table, with the prospect of returning home from a Winter Games empty-handed for the first time since 1992 looking an increasingly frightening reality with each passing day.
However, Bruce Mouat’s rink came away from a tight match with an 8-4 victory to set up the showdown for gold with Sweden.
