 Gimli's Kerri Einarson (photo: Andrew Klaver, Curling Canada) faces Rachel Homan of Ottawa in Sunday's Final at the HearingLife Tour Challenge. Einarson and third Val Sweeting have overcome significant challenges over the past nine months since the curling world was shocked by the news about Briane Harris and her absence from the Scotties. Add in this offseason, with second Shannon Birchard having been on the injured list since the season started, leaving another big hole in the lineup that had won four straight Scotties titles together. Krysten Karwacki has been a rock, stepping in as lead for Einarson, who previously was the fifth player through their winning stretch, and star content creator for the team and several other teams on Tour. Second has been a revolving door, though the addition of Dawn McEwen this week has solidified the lineup and helped Einarson advance to Sunday's final at the HearingLife Tour Challenge in Charlottetown. Einarson needed an extra end to win 6-4 over Japan's Satsuki Fujisawa in Saturday evening's semifinals and won 6-1 over Sweden's Isabella Wrana in the quarterfinals earlier in the day. Einarson advanced through the B-event bracket to qualify for the playoff round after falling 6-4 in the opening round to Italy's Stefania Constantini. Einarson rattled off three straight wins, a 7-4 decision over Delaney Strouse of Traverse City, Michigan, 7-1 over Sweden's Anna Hasselborg and finishing with a 5-4 win over Winnipeg's Kaitlyn Lawes in the qualifying game. The final will be held at the Bell Aliant Centre in Charlottetown at 3:30 p.m. Atlantic Time (1:30 p.m. Central).
