Defeating such a big curling nation as Canada, it's colossal. |
Defeating such a big curling nation as Canada, it's colossal. As far as Scottish curling goes, it's huge. There's a lot of pride at stake, making sure we do ourselves justice. |
I didn't enjoy losing last year. There's nothing I've got against the country (Canada). I'm doing this for myself, the team and for the coaches. We've put so much effort into it this year, committed so much time and days off, I think this team deserves a world title and hopefully we can deliver it. |
I think we just placed our stones better today. We never made a messy shot. We forced a lot of pressure on Canada. |
I'm happy because I've got a great team behind me. |
It feels fantastic to finally get started after all the build-up. We are not quite used to the ice yet but it was important to get a good start. When we've started well in the past, we have always done well. |
It is hard to take because the chance was there. It will be with me for a long time but I am hoping we will get the chance to bury it at the next Olympics. |
It is important to reuse our resources. If you don't recycle and reuse things, you may run out of them. |
It made it hard to come back. |
It shows what you can do if you really train hard and work together as a team. |
It's an old rivalry. It's been around for a long, long time. We're obviously playing for our country, but we owe it to ourselves to do this for each other. |
It's devastating. We wanted that bronze medal every bit as much as we wanted to win the semi-final. We had given some great performances over the last week but just came out on the wrong end of it. |
Last year was so disappointing. We just really wanted to erase those memories and it's been such a good year. We've been real consistent and this is just icing on the cake. |
That's fine. It's what we expected. We get a chance to get our revenge on Finland. We are going in very confident. This is the biggest thing for our sport because we have got a chance of guaranteeing a medal and achieving something we have looked forward to for a long, long time. You just have to be totally focused on what you want to achieve. It is a game of curling and the important thing is not to let your mind wander. If you focus and make every shot your dream will come true. |
That's the last thing I'll be thinking about. |
