Scotland’s Eve Muirhead and Bobby Lammie won the World Mixed Doubles Curling Title on Saturday. They played the hosts- Alina Paetz and Sven Michel, in a thrilling match that gripped the audience.

In the first end Paetz got her last stone inside four Scottish counters, almost frozen. Muirhead then played her last stone, just getting inside a guard to pick out Paetz’s stone and open the scoring with four points.

“It feels good. It hasn’t settled in yet, but the week we’ve had here, it felt like we were controlling everything we were doing, so we’re just delighted today. We’ve had a world-ride of a season and to cap it off this way — it’s been a memorable season for Scottish curling,” said Bobby on winning the curling title.
