Switzerland beat Japan by 9 shots to 6 to win the Gold Medals in the Final Game of these Championships. In an extremely competitive game, Japan had led by 1 shot after eight ends but two successive scores of 2 shots gave the more experienced Swiss team victory. Switzerland have won now Gold in the Women's World Championships four times in the last five years and this Swiss team also won in 2014.
The win moves Switzerland move up to 1st place ahead of Canada in the World Rankings. There is then a big gap to a close group of three - Sweden, Scotland/GBR and Russia.
