P.A. curler looking ahead after Pinty’s loss
Despite a loss to Binia Felscher of Switzerland on Wednesday at the Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling Tour Challenge in Regina, Prince Albert’s Kara Thevenot is taking the loss in stride.
“Early on we weren’t throwing well and we seem to struggle with weight as well,” said Thevenot. “But we hung in there and made a few shots and forced them (Team Switzerland) to make a few mistakes so we could get back in the game.”
The past twelve months have been very exciting for Thevenot and the other members of Team Silvernagle. The foursome continued to improve on the ice which culminated in the team going 7-1 during the round robin portion of the 2017 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts eventually losing in the final to Penny Barker on the final stone.
“We were so very close to getting to that next stage,” Thevenot said. “I think we realize now what it is going to take to get there.”
