Jennifer Dodds is aiming for back-to-back Winter Olympic gold medals, with the curling groups the primary formally confirmed Crew GB athletes for Milan-Cortina 2026.
And, with a silver medal on their debut, Bruce Mouat and his rink are aiming to go one higher in Italy subsequent 12 months.
Mouat, together with Grant Hardie, Bobby Lammie and Hammy McMillan Jr, had been narrowly overwhelmed by Sweden within the 2022 ultimate.
Dodds teamed up with Eve Muirhead, Vicky Wright and Hailey Duff in Beijing as Britain topped the rostrum for the primary time in 20 years.
This time, she will probably be joined by Rebecca Morrison, Sophie Sinclair and skip Sophie Jackson.
“Successful gold final time was a dream come true, so I am excited to get again there, clearly with a brand new staff,” Dodds advised BBC Scotland.
“We have been constructing so much over the past couple of seasons and I am excited to see the place the trajectory of our efficiency can go over the following eight months.
“I’ve recognized a few the women for fairly some time, however that is the factor, we most likely needed to construct that teamwork, construct the friendships and I really feel like we have completed that actually properly. I feel you possibly can see in our performances, our teamwork has improved, and a giant a part of that’s communication and understanding one another.”
Mouat’s Scotland rink gained World Championship gold for a second time this 12 months, having been European champions on 4 events.
Now the Edinburgh roller desires so as to add Olympic gold to their checklist of achievements.
“We had been shut final time,” he mentioned. “It got here right down to a matter of centimetres within the ultimate. It was powerful on the time however we have actually bounced again and received our two world championships and now we have got 10 Grand Slam titles, so we have now quite a lot of momentum.”
