THUNDER BAY, Ont. — Defending champion Rachel Homan carried an unbeaten record into the Scotties Tournament of Hearts playoffs, while Alberta and B.C. locked in their playoff seedings Thursday.
Alberta's Kayla Skrlik and B.C.'s Corryn Brown both finished 6-2 with Skrlik ranked higher because of a win over Brown in the preliminary round.
Pool B's playoff picture was still muddy heading into the evening draw with Manitoba's Kerri Einarson, Ontario's Danielle Inglis, Nova Scotia's Christina Black and Quebec Laurie's St-Georges the front-runners. "It was the opportunity to play on those middle sheets, learn the ice and the rocks, how we need to play moving forward," said Homan.
The losers take on the third seed in the opposite pool with those victors advancing to the Page playoff between the third and fourth seeds. Skrlik reached the final of September's single knockout PointsBet Invitational in Calgary where the team fell 8-3 to Homan. Flemming played through a bad cold Thursday. Ramsay sat out the team's opener in Thunder Bay, Ont., with the flu.
