With second Shannon Birchard still sidelined with a knee injury, former Scotties Tournament of Hearts and world champion Joanne Courtney will play with Team Kerri Einarson for their next two events.

The 30-year-old Birchard, who has won five Scotties titles, including four with Einarson, hasn't played this season due to the injury. Laura Walker filled-in for their brief one game appearance at the PointsBet Invitational in late September before Dawn McEwen helped them win the first Grand Slam of the season - the Tour Challenge in Charlottetown - the following week, beating No. 1-ranked Team Rachel Homan in the final.
Since leaving competitive curling, Courtney has stayed active in the game as a broadcaster, calling games for TSN during the Season of Champions.
