After four World Cup titles in a row, the Swiss curlers led by Skip Silvana Tirinzoni could also become European champions for the first time. At the European Championships in Aberdeen they defeated Norway 8-3 in the semi-finals.
Carole Howald, Selina Witschonke, Silvana Tirinzoni and the outstanding number 4 Alina Pätz can rest on Friday after the strict program. They will play the final against Italy led by Skip Stefania Constantini on Saturday at 10 a.m.
The Swiss women provided the ideal outcome in the match against the Norwegians around Skip Marianne Rörvik. With the advantage of the last stone, they each score two points until the second half of the game, in between they award their opponents only one point. This means the provisional decision. They defeated Norway as clearly as they did in the World Cup final in Östersund in March this year.
With ten wins in a row, the CC Aarau curlers have equaled the longest winning streak of the Swiss women’s teams at the European Championships. You set the record yourself in 2018. At that time, they had to be stopped by Sweden in the final.
In the round robin, the Swiss showed overwhelming dominance. They played 76 games over the nine games and only trailed after six games – and this was still in the first half of the game.
Equally impressive was the superiority in the teams’ statistics and in each individual position. With the extremely high percentage of 88.3 percent successful stones, they outperformed all other teams by 4.3 percent or more. Carole Howald, Silvana Tirinzoni and Alina Pätz were the best in their positions. Selina Witschonke was only passed in second place by the Italian Angela Romei. The 91.0 percent of number 4 Pätz, who usually has to play the most difficult pieces, is downright sensational. It’s a value that even the best men can hardly achieve in so many games. Italian Stefania Constantini was the second best number 4 with 80.6 percent.
In the ninth and final round-robin match, the Swiss won 7-2 against Italy on Thursday morning. In the fifth end they managed to make the score 7-1 through a five-man duel. The Italians gave up after six goals. (SDA/dti)
