GSOC- National Dec. 6-11 2016

It just gets better every event
Check out the Top world curlers at this event.. its like a mini-Olympics/worlds

Asides:
1. Cathy O will be spare for Team Tirinzoni...
Cathy has won four titles in the series including two as a spare. She helped Val Sweeting capture her first career Grand Slam at the Masters in 2014 and assisted Eve Muirhead with her successful title defence at the Players Championship this past season.

2.After a three-peat at the European Championships, Swedens Niklas Edin now looks to make it three in a row this season in the Pintys Grand Slam of Curling.

Edin edged Norways Thomas Ulsrud in the European final this past weekend and now shifts his focus to the Boost National, starting Tuesday at the Essar Centre in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.

Can Edin go for three? He would join an exclusive club with only skips Kevin Martin, Glenn Howard and Rachel Homan having won three (or more) consecutive championships in the series.

Wild cards

The Pintys Grand Slam of Curling granted sponsors exemptions for the Boost National to a pair of Northern Ontario teams.

Krista McCarville of Thunder Bay will play in the womens division. McCarville has only competed in a few events this season following a comeback season last year winning four consecutive tour titles plus a silver medal at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts.

18-year-old Tanner Horgan of Sudbury makes his series debut on the mens side. Horgan, runner-up at the Canadian juniors, has balanced this year with a handful of mens events alongside his junior schedule.
-----------------
Olympic gold medallist Brad Jacobs would love to win the Boost National in front of his fans
------------------
Brad Gushue looks to make his season debut after missing eight events to start the year due to a hip/groin issue.
Mark Nichols drops back to his regular third position.
Nichols kept the team in first place on the World Curling Tours Order of Merit by qualifying for the playoffs in all eight tournaments including a runner-up finish at the Canada Cup this past weekend.

Now he hands the wheel back to Gushue as they prepare to defend the Boost National title.

It all start tonight ...

Team Sidorova

- has played in only three events this season, never getting past the quarterfinals
- were upset in the European playdowns with Team Moiseeva going on to win the European Championships.
- the Russian Federation pulled Team Sidorova from the Continental Cup before the European playdowns were even held citing a conflict with the teams training schedule.
- will be interesting to see if they can regain their form at the Boost National.

Sponsors exemptions? Too bad that they could be taking points away from teams with a legitimate chance of making the trials or pretrials and need every point they can get,

The men's looks 4 teams short at 14, two 5 team divisions and a 4 team?

Great field on both sides.

If they are 4 men's teams short, why wouldn't they offer those spots up to the next teams in line willing and available until they filled them? What a waste of a great opportunity for those teams.

Who actually makes the decision who gets invited or qualifies for these events?

There are 15 teams, or three 5 team divisions, Koe is missing on Curling Zone and the site in the standings.

http://www.thegrandslamofcurling.co...onal-standings/

The WCT site said 18 teams, that is where I came up with 4 short.

http://www.thegrandslamofcurling.co...r-the-national/

Qualification for the National

The National features a total of 15 mens teams and 15 womens teams. Both mens and womens divisions include the top 14 teams based on the World Curling Tours Order of Merit total ranking system (as of Oct. 31, 2016) plus 1 sponsors exemption.

In the event a team declines their invitation, the next team on the OOM rankings will be invited until the field is complete.

The Pintys Grand Slam of Curling reserves the right to implement a sponsors exemption in both the mens and womens fields in which one spot could be filled at their discretion. If the series chooses not to implement the sponsors exemption, the next-ranked team on the OOM rankings will receive an invite.

t was 18 until last year. They probably forgot to edit to put the change in. I'm guessing that Gerry will rectify that by tomorrow.

Question resiliency

Team Hasselborg - their first event following a disappointing finish to the European Championships where they lost the final when Hasselborg wrecked on a guard with her last rock.
A solid performance in the Soo might go a long way in proving the team has the resiliency required of elite teams.
Anna faces the very tough Korean EunJung Kim who won the Pacific-Asia Curling Championship last month to qualify for the Humptys Champions Cup.

Matches start at 8:30 am ET Today...

Hasselborg was inconsolable when that draw hit the high guard, I think the curl was a little later and they thought that stone was not in the line they threw.

My bet is she comes out confident and does well here.

I'm here

I'm here in person at the arena. My first attendance of a big event.
I caught the last 3 ends of that Carey-Holman match. It looked as one sided in person as it does on the score line.

Is there anything anyone wants to know about that me, a complete amateur observer, could help with?

Time to go settle in for Muirhead-Rocque.

HotRocks posted that a solid performance by Hasselborg might go a long way in proving the team has the resiliency required of an elite team. Might? Why only might? Why wouldn't that be definitve proof?
And if they don't at least make the SF's, are you inferring that will prove they actually don't have the required resiliency to be an elite team? And if that's the case, how would you explain why they are currently ranked 4th on the WCT money list and are already considered "elite" by many?

We have had some issues with the site being spammed and as the official stats/scoring for the GSOC, we need to focus on making sure that system works so when this happens we have to turn some things off.

We're working on solutions and have identified some of the issues, now it's a matter of finding the best solution so we don't need to turn off parts of the site.

General impressions

The level of play is very high and quite enjoyable to watch. The attendance at most sessions is in the low 100s, so you can move from one seat to another and get a better look at things.

There were many more at Draw 1 in prime time last night to cheer on Brad Jacobs, maybe 1000, and at the noon draw today there were several kids groups in maybe totalling about the same number.

I have tickets for the whole event, but there's lake effect snow coming along my road home. There may be a window in it on Friday, and if there is, I'm going to take it and leave then, or else I could be stuck here a lot longer than I'd planned on.

Great match between Jones & Hasselborg

The best match I've seen so far just ended between Teams Jones and Hasselborg.

Hasselborg had managed to sneakily get a steal of 1 in the 5th to get a 3-2 lead. 6th was blanked. In the 7th, Jones got a cluster of 3 stones at about 1 o'clock inside the 8-foot circle, grazing the 4-foot, and Hasselborg attempted a triple takeout. She managed to negotiate the guards and hit all 3 Jones stones, but only with enough force to just spread them out across the rings, setting up a score of 4 on Jones' last shot. 6-3 Jones.

Then in the 8th, Hasselborg had 3 stones lined up nicely near the end of the end but Jones needed only to remove a couple with a takeout, and she just missed and slid them a bit rarther than take them out, setting Hasselborg up to score 3 (maybe 4) if she could just remove a wide stone of Jones'. She tired this, and in what looked like deja vu from the way she lost the gold medal at the European Championships a week and a half ago, her last stone crashed on a high guard. Game over, Jones won.
