Eve and co make it five from five

-

Pitlochry curling ace Eve Muirhead’s rink continued on their winning ways at the Scottish Championsh­ips at Dewars Centre, Perth, yesterday.

The Courier columnist, right, and her team maintained their 100% record with two more victories – beating Maggie Wilson’s rink 8-3 before seeing off Karina Aitken’s team 7-4 in the afternoon session.

In the men’s competitio­n, Perth’s Kyle Smith leads the way after guiding his rink to a 7-3 win over Ron Whyte and a 7-6 success over Chay Telfer, making it seven wins from eight games.

Hot on the heels of Smith are the rinks skipped by David Murdoch and Tom Brewster, whose teams have both won six games.

Meanwhile, at the World Junior Championsh­ips in Gangneung, the Scottish women beat Canada 8-5 before losing their last round-robin game 8-7 against Russia.

The Scottish men were not in action yesterday.
