Canada crushes Ukraine 18-0 at world mixed doubles curling championship
STAVANGER, Norway — Canada’s Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant walloped Ukraine’s Olena Pazderska and Yevhen Stadnyk 18-0 on Sunday at the world mixed doubles championship.
The teams shook hands after six ends of play at Somarka Arena. Peterman, from Winnipeg, and Gallant, from St. John’s, N.L., scored four points in each of the last three ends.
Ukraine is making its debut on the world curling stage this season.
“It’s a good experience for us and I’m sure it’s a better experience for them to play some countries with a lot of experience,” Gallant said. “I’m sure they’re learning a lot from being here and being in these conditions.
