CALGARY — Allyson MacNutt produced the biggest upset yet in a curling event that provides a stage for toppling heavyweights.
MacNutt's team from Halifax, which will represent Canada at the 2025 world junior curling championship, defeated four-time national women's champion Kerri Einarson 8-6 on Thursday at the PointsBet Invitational.The round of 16 in Curling Canada's PointsBet features junior, college, university, under-25 and club champions taking on some of the top teams in the country.
Einarson's attempted raise to remove it and score with her final throw of the 10th gave up another steal of one. Kayla Skrlik meets Chelsea Carey, Kaitlyn Lawes takes on Selena Sturmay and defending champion Rachel Homan is up against Corryn Brown in the other women's quarterfinals. Einarson was without her usual front end in Calgary. Shannon Birchard, who is nursing a knee injury, was replaced by Laura Walker.
