ESTEVAN, Sask. — Defending champion Jennifer Jones is right where she wants to be after the opening day of the Canada Cup.
The Winnipeg skip sits 2-0 after downing Darcy Robertson 9-7 in Wednesday’s evening draw after opening her tournament with a 7-5 win over Calgary’s Chelsea Carey (0-2) earlier in the day.
Jones trailed by two heading into the final end, but scored three points to take the victory.
Robertson (1-1) had taken a 7-5 lead with a deuce in the eighth.
