Olympic qualification - World Curling Federation

We will have to see later in the year if the US can qualify in Mixed Doubles for curling. They are qualified now for both the Men and Women Team Curling events.

Funny. Tonight's final match was very exciting and the winner came down to the throw of the last 44 lb stone. Why does a curling stone curl? | Smithsonian Science Education Center

Sorry I have been busy watching college football, pro football and the World Series but I would opt for watching grass grow over curling
