Scotland had another 2 wins today to safely qualify. They edged past Netherlands this morning by 5-3, again scoring 3 shots to give themselves a cushion for the remaining ends. Then they defeated Switzerland by 8-7 after an extra end this evening to see off dangerous opponents. Scotland had been 5-6 down at the 6th end but staged a well-managed recovery to pull through.
They are now 2nd equal with Canada on 8 wins, behind still unbeaten Sweden on 10 wins. These 3 have qualified for the later stages with the remaining 3 places to be filled. Italy lead the rest on 7 wins, followed by Germany and Switzerland on 6 wins. United States on 5 wins still have a slim chance, but must rely on other results going their way.
Scotland's games tomorrow are against Norway at 08.00 and Sweden at 18.00 to finish the Round Robin games. The final game against Sweden is on the BBC website and i-Player. The Qualification games on Saturday are yet to be determined with 3rd to 6th playing off to reach the Semi-finals. 1st and 2nd go directly into the Semis on Saturday afternoon.
