Scotland duly won the Bronze Medal, beating Korea 11-4 after an 8th end full of "interesting" delivery styles. Teams must play at least 8 ends, no matter what the score is - presumably to give the crowd their money's worth.
In the Gold Medal match, Sweden comfortably defeated Canada 7-3, after leading 7-1 after 7 ends. Another meaningless 8th end was played to satisfy the rules.
GOLD - Sweden - skip Niklas Edin, third Oskar Eriksson, second player Rasmus Wranaa and
lead Christoffer Sundgren, supported by alternate Henrik Leek and coach Fredrik Lindberg.
