The pair helped the USA race into a 2-0 lead after the first end, but China hit back with two of their own in the second end to leave it all square after two.

China then went 3-2 ahead in the third end before four points in the next three ends for the Hamiltons wrapped up the victory.

But it was not as good news for the men’s team as they went down 9-2 to Japan in their Group A clash.
