Brad Gushue Stays Unbeaten with Stellar Performance at KIOTI Grand Slam of Curling

In a thrilling showdown at the KIOTI Grand Slam of Curling, Brad Gushue’s curling team has maintained their undefeated streak after a commanding victory over seasoned competitor Reid Carruthers.

The match started off on a high note for Gushue, as he seized on key mistakes from Carruthers, rocketing to a 5-0 lead by the end of the third end. The first end showed Gushue's precision as they took advantage of missed shots from Carruthers, indicating a promising day ahead for the team.

Though Carruthers mounted a valiant effort with a comeback that saw him score three points to narrow the gap, it ultimately fell short. Gushue secured his second victory of the tournament with a final score of 6-3.

After the match, Gushue expressed his satisfaction with the win, especially in front of a supportive hometown crowd. "It's always nice to start strong. Generally, a three-point lead that early lets you control the pace of the game," he said. "After we led, we focused on not making any big mistakes. At this level, a five-point lead is usually safe, but you have to stay sharp.”

Looking ahead, Gushue's team is set to hit the ice again tomorrow at 8:00 p.m. island time, where fans will be eager to see if they can extend their unbeaten run in this prestigious tournament.
