Homan defeats Sweden, improves to 4-3 at Olympics

Canada’s Rachel Homan’s rink defeated Sweden 8‑6 in the Olympic curling round‑robin, extending her win streak to three and improving to 4‑3.

In the 2026 Winter Games in Milan‑Cortina, Homan’s Canadian team knocked off the last undefeated side, Sweden’s Anna Hasselborg, 8‑6. The victory extended Homan’s streak to three games and lifted the Canadians to a 4‑3 record in the round‑robin.

With the win, Homan will rest before facing host Italy on Wednesday at 1:05 p.m. ET. A victory would secure a spot in the top four and advance her team to the semifinals on Friday.
