Homan defeats Sweden, improves to 4-3 at Olympics

Canada’s Team Rachel Homan knocked off the undefeated Swedish team 8-6 in the Olympic curling round‑robin, extending her win streak to three games and improving her record to 4‑3.

In the 2026 Winter Games curling round‑robin, Canada’s Rachel Homan rink beat Sweden’s Anna Hasselborg 8‑6. A decisive triple‑takeout in the eighth end gave Canada a 6‑5 lead, and a final‑end steal sealed the win.

Homan’s team now sits at 4‑3, three wins in a row, and will face host Italy on Wednesday. A victory could secure a spot in the top‑four playoffs.
