Scotland Men are continuing their recent run of excellent form with 3 wins out of 3 in their opening games in Lohja. Firstly they scraped past a dogged German side by 8-7 with a last end score of 2 shots, then defeated Czechia by a seemingly more routine score of 10-5, although it took another last end score, this time of 4 shots to settle any nerves. The third game was also won with a decent score of 7-4 against Austria. Tomorrow the Scots, with their tried and trusted team of Hammy McMillan, Bobby Lammie, Grant Hardie and Bruce Mouat, play Denmark and Switzerland.
Scotland Women got an absolute thumping from Turkiye by 0-9 after only 6 ends, then suffered a second defeat in a much better game 6-7 by Sweden. The team of Sophie Jackson, Sophie Sinclair, Jennifer Dodds and Rebecca Morrison got a deserved first victory over Denmark by 8-4 and scoring in 7 out of the 10 ends. They now play Italy and Lithuania tomorrow.
The England Men's team of Andrew Woolston, Scott Gibson, Jotham Sugden and Rob Retchless have won their opening games, demolishing Wales by 11-2 after 8 ends and a tight scoring game for the first 5 ends, then Latvia by 10-5, again after 8 ends and after a tight first 7 ends. Tomorrow they play against Ukraine.
Wales Men - Simon Pougher, Garry Coombs, Rhys Phillips and James Pougher - lost their second game by 5-9 against Slovenia after a poor start and also their third by 3-9 against Turkiye after another poor start. Tomorrow they take on Estonia.
Ireland Men have been in two really close games, firstly losing 6-7 against Spain, then beating Netherlands by 5-4. The team of Craig Whyte, James Russell, Kyle Paradis and John Wilson play Hungary tomorrow.
England Women - Naomi Robinson, Angharad Ward, Anna Fowler and Lisa Farnell - lost their first two games, against Hungary by 3-9 and Latvia by 6-8, but recovered to win 8-6 against Netherlands after an extra end. They will now play against Slovakia tomorrow.
