Second draw, which was last night and we weren't there: France def. Switzerland; Sweden def. Australia; Canada def. Denmark; Germany def. China.
Third draw, this morning, only had two games. Scotland* vs. Norway on sheet B; the Norwegian skip missed two important shots in the first end to give Scotland an early four points, and Scotland never lost that lead. 10-6 in nine. Meanwhile, I was timing Czech Republic vs. USA on sheet C, and between the Czech team still being on their A game with which they defeated Scotland yesterday and the US skip missing at least two important shots (in the fourth and fifth ends, for steals of two and one, respectively), the Czech Republic defeated the USA 7-4.
I know, right?
Standings after three draws:
*Murdoch looking scruffy, and you know how I like it when they don't shave. :-)
