Canada's Koe beats Scotland and Switzerland to reach gold-medal game at worlds. MORE:
LETHBRIDGE, Alta. — Canada lead Ben Hebert came off the ice after another dramatic win at the world men's curling championship and promptly extended both arms out.His skip, Kevin Koe, had just delivered another clutch shot on Saturday for a second straight 6-5 victory and a berth in the gold-medal game against Sweden.
The packed house at the Enmax Centre erupted when four Swiss stones rolled out and two Canadian rocks remained. "No one else in the world can make a quad like that," Hebert said."It's gross. And a game-saver. To give up a four-banger like that, take the momentum away, we're in some big trouble.The shot prevented a big Swiss end and the force kept the host side in control. Koe came through again in the seventh with a razor-thin double takeout that made the crowd pop once more.
Koe seems to maintain his composure no matter what the situation. He delivered on a game-winning shot for the national title last month and is making a habit of taking his time even when the clock is winding down. Koe went for a blank attempt in the ninth end but his stone hung around after a double takeout. That gave Mouat the hammer down by two in the 10th.
