Canada defeated reigning champions Switzerland 7-5 to win the 2024 World Women’s Curling Championship.
The tournament was held in Sydney on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia, Canada from 16-24 March 2024.
The action began with a round-robin event where all 13 nations played each other once.
The top six teams advanced to the play-off places, with the top two proceeding directly to the semi-finals. Hosts Canada – skipped by Rachel Homan – topped the group.
Switzerland won their last two games to take second with Silvana Tirinzoni as the skip. The reigning champions, Italy and Republic of Korea finished with 10-2 records, but victories over both nations meant the Swiss won the tie-breaker.
In the qualification games to decide the other semi-finalists, third-placed Italy got the better of Denmark with Republic of Korea defeating PyeongChang 2018 Olympic gold medallists Sweden.
After falling to Canada in the semi-final, the Republic of Korea faced Italy, which earlier lost to Switzerland, and claimed a 6-3 win to take the bronze.
Here are all the results, fixtures and standings from the competition.
