After hitting the heights against Canada, Scotland came back down to earth with a bump against Czechia, losing 2-8 after only 7 ends. The Scots lost 3 successive ends at a cost of 5 shots early on and then lost 3 shots in the 7th end, so conceded the game. Bruce Mouat had a percentage score of 71, really poor by his standards. All the Scottish players were outgunned by their immediate opponents, so it's not just down to him.
They played against Italy in their second game and were losing 5-6 after 8 ends. A brilliant take-out from a re-energised Bruce Mouat got Scotland 4 shots to grab a sufficient lead to run the Italians out of stones in the last end to win 9-7.
The Scots now lead the table after 6 games with 5 wins alongside China. Canada, Switzerland and Norway have 4 wins and there are 11 teams still in the hunt.
Scotland play Switzerland (yes, definitely this time) at 4pm tomorrow, then Norway at 9pm.
