Canada notched two more wins on Tuesday, including an extra-end nail-biter against Australia, to secure a spot in the playoffs at the World Mixed Curling Championship in Champéry, Switzerland.
Trevor Bonot and his Northern Ontario crew of vice-skip Jackie McCormick, second Kory Carr, lead Megan Carr and coach Jim Waite had their hands full in the morning game against Australia’s Hugh Milliken – a transplanted Canadian who won gold at the 1986 Canadian Mixed playing with Ontario’s Dave Van Dine.
Tied after eight ends, Bonot had to make a perfect draw to the button in the extra end for the 6-5 victory.
