2025 BKT World Men's Curling

It was a quiet morning at the BTK World Men’s Curling Championship at the Temple Gardens Centre on Monday.

Only three of four sheets were in action with Canada having the morning off.

The European champion Germans picked up their first win of the tournament, downing Austria 9-3.

Switzerland picked up a 8-5 win over Japan and Italy won 7-5 over Czechia.

This afternoon will feature two of the top teams as Canada will take on Scotland. 

After Day 2 of the BKT World Men’s Curling Championship at the Temple Gardens Centre in Moose Jaw, Canada, China and Scotland are the only remaining undefeated teams.

Canada had the bye during Sunday evening’s draw, but China and Scotland each picked up wins.

China was leading Italy 6-4 heading into the ninth end before scoring three points to make the final 9-4.

Meanwhile, Korea held tough against the Scots. Scotland only held a 6-3 lead heading into the ninth end. They also scored three for a 9-3 win.

It's been a hot start for Team Canada at the BKT World Men's Curling Championship at the Temple Gardens Centre.

Canada defeated South Korea 9-3 in the afternoon draw to move to 3-0 to remain atop the standings.

Canada opened with the hammer. Jacobs drew to the side of the button for three to start the game. In the second, Canada forced Korea to draw for their single point.

After Korean skip Hyojun Kim came up light on his last rock, Jacobs drew a piece of the button for two to give Canada a 5-1 lead after three ends.

Team Canada had the bye for the morning draw at the BKT World Men’s Curling Championship at the Temple Gardens Centre on Sunday. However, there was still plenty of action.

All eyes were on world No. 1 Scotland as they took on Japan.

Scotland scored four in the second, but Japan scored four right back in the third end. But late steals by Scotland led them to a 9-7 win. Scotland now sits at 2-0 in the standings.

In other action during the morning draw, China remained undefeated stunning the United States 8-2.

It was a perfect Day 1 at the BKT World Men's Curling Championship at the Temple Gardens Centre for Team Canada.

After downing Japan in the opening draw, Canada picked up a 7-5 win over Germany.

Canada looked like they were going to cruise to a victory until a missed shot led to Germany scoring three in the ninth end.

"We were in control of the whole game really, maybe called the wrong shot, wrong weight choice on my last one in nine, just rip the back one and we are probably shaking hands," said Canada skip Brad Jacobs.

The BKT World Men’s Curling Championship got underway this afternoon at a near sold-old Temple Gardens Centre with Team Canada coming away with a 7-3 win over Japan.

The turning put was in the sixth end as Canada took advantage of a couple of missed shots by Japan to pick up three points, while mostly keeping the Japanese to single points without the hammer.

Thousands of curling fans are set to arrive in Moose Jaw as the city gears up for the BKT World Men’s Curling Championship, which gets underway this Saturday at the Temple Gardens Centre.  

Here are a few things to know ahead of the event. 

Having strong sweepers and the right equipment could be a factor at this year’s BKT World Men’s Curling Championship, which begins in Moose Jaw on Saturday. 

Sweeping in curling has evolved over the years, from having two big guys sweeping in front of a rock to changes in broom head technology, the knowledge of how sweeping manipulates the rock, and the athleticism of curlers. 

The excitement is growing as the BKT World Men’s Curling Championship begins in Moose Jaw on Saturday at the Temple Gardens Centre. 

The ice has been installed, and the folks at Curling Canada are excited once again to see Moose Jaw host another prestigious curling event. 

Since the men’s world championship began in 1959, Canadian cities have played host to the tournament 26 times. Regina has been the only Saskatchewan city to host the event, having done so in 1973, 1983, and 2011. 

A ton of world championship experience will be in Team Canada’s corner when they compete at the BKT World Men’s Curling Championship from March 29 to April 6 at the Temple Gardens Centre in Moose Jaw. 

National Men’s Coach Jeff Stoughton knows a thing or two about winning world championships on home soil, and more specifically in Saskatchewan.
