Now the undeniable fact that dare not be mentioned can finally be mentioned.
Scotland Women won the Gold Medal against current champions Japan by 9-7, scoring 5 shots in the last 2 ends in the process. Remember that the Scottish Women had only qualified through the B Division earlier in the year. Never before had a qualifier from the B Division won Gold in these Championships. Well done to Scotland for a brilliant performance. Fay Henderson finishes her junior career on a high.

Well done also to Norway who won Bronze, who beat Switzerland 8-5 in the other Medal Game. Switzerland had been unbeaten in the 9 games in the Round Robin, but lost the 2 games at the business end of the competition.
The Scotland Men also came good after their below-par performance yesterday, cruising past Norway 11-4 after 9 ends - a lot of personal pride at stake in this game, I'm sure. And it's back to school on Monday for Orrin Carson, complete with Bronze Medal.
The Gold/Silver match was won by China who beat Germany by 8-7. The Germans delighted the home crowd by coming back from 3-7 down after 6 ends to be drawing 7-7 at the 9th end. China eventually made last stone advantage count with a single shot in the final end.
