Great Britain's last accurate shot to score two more points and, with this, there is no need to play the tenth episode and they have taken the gold medal.
Meanwhile, Japan is currently in 12th place in the medal standings with a total of 17 medals, divided into: 3 gold, 5 silver and 9 bronze, although tonight they will add one more.
The coach of Japan's national team is Canadian LIND J.D., born on February 19, 1985, which means that today is his birthday and he will be looking to win the gold medal.
As we already mentioned, Great Britain won the silver medal in men's curling but, curiously, it has been their only medal so far, so now they will be looking for the gold medal to climb positions in the medal table.
On the same day, but in the early hours of the morning Mexican time, Sweden played against Switzerland in the third place game in the women's division, which was won by the blue and yellow team by a score of 9 to 7.
