A former World Champion in women’s curling who now works for the Swedish Curling Federation (Sara Carlsson) interviewed me a few weeks ago for an article that was published a few days before my birthday/start of the World Men’s Curling Championships in Canada. It’s now official - I’m Swedish Curlings Biggest Fan. The article is in Swedish, but Google Translate is helpful. I had my friend who knows Swedish read it & he approved. I doubt a lot of people read it, but I’ll forever have bragging rights. I hope it encourages more Swedes to become Swedish Curling fangirls (and fanboys). I’ve crawled through mud on my hands & knees to pave the way so that future fans can have an easier time supporting Swedish curlers.

World Men's Curling Championship: Scotland topple hosts Canada for gold medal 🥇 Scotland are world champions for the first time since 2009.

Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 clinched the World Men's Curling Championship gold in a dominant victory over hosts Canada 🇨🇦

Fourteen years on from their last title, the Scots led from the second end and were in control en route to a 9-3 win at Ottowa's TD Place Arena.

Mouat's team of Grant Hardie, Bobby Lammie and Hammy McMillan, who needed a tense extra end to edge past Italy in the last four, now add world gold to their current European title and Olympic silver medal.

The team is going to keep going to try to get to the next Olympics and hopefully recreate something like what they did today. That's the goal for all of them and it's exactly why they're still together right now.

Switzerland 🇨🇭 took bronze after beating Italy 🇮🇹 11-3.

Well done @TeamMouat 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏆World Champions. #WMCC2023 🥌🥌🥌

First attempt at a reaction video. This took way too long during the week of Men’s Worlds - impromptu project around my birthday because I’m too chicken to embrace the cringe and post the full curling Taylor Swift song parody Blanked Ends. Maybe in the future…

Over the years I’ve observed that what Nik is doing now fresh from surgery is extremely difficult to do even for the healthiest and younger curlers. I’m guessing elite curlers are secretly shaking in their boots right now because Nik showed at the most recent GSOC just how scary good he already is just 2 months from surgery despite wearing the magical brace & using a modified, more upright slide out of the hack. Imagine how formidable a foe he’ll be come April/May when he’s healed more & stronger. I for one cannot wait to see. Looking forward to @teamniklasedin making history again by winning #WMCC2023 for my birthday it will be the 5th straight for this iteration of Team Edin & 7th overall for 🐐 @niklasedin I am convinced & repeatedly willing the universe to manifest not only another Worlds win for my #Icevengers but more GSOC wins, including the Pinty’s Cup & reclaiming the European Championships title 👊💪 . . I’m still bummed my Swedes didn’t win Team of the Year for the sports gala. I know they were out of the running for the biggest overall award despite me voting & trying to get other curling fans to vote too, but they should’ve won Team of the Year after winning both Olympic & Worlds gold in 2022. Do they get a special award for managing to dodge all the cameras at the event though? Were they eliminated by default because Nik is the curling GOAT & not a horse 🤔 (Sorry for the attempt at a dad joke - apparently equestrians tend to win a lot at the sports gala so it’s a pro-horse & maybe not a pro-GOAT crowd?) Congrats to Nils van der Poel though, like for reals. I like the guy & he deserved all the awards.
