Canada's Lotts Win Mixed Doubles Curling Bronze

GENEVA Canada's Kadriana and Colton Lott, a married curling duo from Gimli, Manitoba, secured bronze medals at the world mixed doubles curling championship on Saturday with an 11-3 victory over Italy's Stefania Constantini and Amos Mosaner.

The Lotts delivered a commanding performance after losing to Sweden in the semifinals. They notched two four-enders and one three-ender, finishing with 89 percent shooting accuracy compared to Italy's 65 percent. The match turned early when Italy came up light on a draw in the first end, allowing Canada to tap around a guard for four points. "It gives us all the momentum going forward, right from the get-go," Colton Lott said.

Canada maintained pressure throughout, forcing Italy into precise shots that often resulted in errors. The decisive sixth end saw the Lotts use their power play to draw for four more points, prompting Italy to concede the final two ends.

The win marked Canada's first medal at the event since 2019 and Kadriana Lott's first career world medal. For Colton Lott, it was his second international medal of the 2025-26 season, following a silver last month as third for Team Matt Dunstone at the men's world championship.
