Team GB’s curlers won silver on Day 15 of Milano Cortina 2026.
Bruce Mouat, Grant Hardie, Bobby Lammie and Hammy McMillan Jr repeated their achievement from Beijing 2022 after coming agonisingly close to gold in a hard-fought contest against Canada.
Andrew Musgrave sealed a fourth top 10 finish at these Games as he finished sixth in the men’s cross-country skiing 50km mass start classic. Team-mate Joe Davies took 16th.
There was a 15th-place finish for Adele Nicoll and Ashleigh Nelson in the two-woman bobsleigh, while Ollie Davies reached the 1/8 stage of the men’s ski cross.
Curlers win second silver
Team Mouat came inches away from an historic curling gold, but ultimately lost 9-6 to Canada.
An attritional encounter was turned in the ninth end, as Canada took three and saw home victory to deny Team GB their first men’s curling gold in 102 years.
"It took me four years to get over the first silver, so it will probably take a lot longer this time," said McMillan.
"[There were] lot of really good things out there today. I really felt we did bring our A game there for eight ends.
"Unfortunately we gave away a three in the ninth. We really got something going there in the tenth, I thought Bruce was going to play a shot for a three to bring it home. We were just the wrong side of an inch tonight."
Nicoll and Nelson improve to 15th
Adele Nicoll and Ashleigh Nelson sealed a 15th-place finish in the two-woman bobsleigh after an improved showing on the second day of competition.
The pair endured disappointment in their first two runs but bounced back on Saturday to climb to 15th after starting the day 21st.
“I’m really really happy with how today went,” said Nelson. “After yesterday, Adele has done a fantastic job to turn things around.
“I’m just so happy and elated to be at my fourth Olympic and first Winter Olympics. I’ve done it!
“It was really hard to keep our head in the game but it just goes to show what professionals we both are.
“It’s been less than two years since I started bobsleigh and I’m just so overwhelmed that I’m at an Olympic Games.
“I owe it to the team around me, Adele, Kya [Placide] and all the coaching staff. I’m honoured to be a winter Olympian.”
Musgrave makes history
Andrew Musgrave concluded the most successful Winter Olympics by a British cross-country skier with a sixth-place finish in the men's 50km mass start.
In an event won by Johannes Høsflot Klæbo for a record sixth gold of the Games, the 35-year-old made more British history with a fourth top-10 finish of the Games, finishing three minutes 58.7 seconds back from the Norwegian.
Joe Davies produced an impressive showing as he came home in 16th in a time of two hours, 14 minutes, 52.7 seconds.
Davies had never previously competed in a World Cup or World Championship event over more than 30km, but finished comfortably inside the top 20.
"Sixth in the world is a good result but it's not the chunk of medal around my neck that I dreamt of," Musgrave said.
"The whole British team have done a super good Olympics and so it's great to see that. It shows that we have a promising future."
Davies rues early exit
Ollie Davies was left to wonder what might have been after he exited the men's ski cross at the 1/8 stage.
"Sadness, disappointment, frustration. There were too many mistakes," he said.
"I don't know what to put it down to. Stupid errors, but I don't know where they've come from.
"I pulled a good start. Training was really good this morning, but qualification was dreadful.
"I was there up with the guys on the start, even though I had bad gate.
"And then in the middle section I had some speed coming but then missed my combinations.
"It was the same at the bottom, I had some speed coming down, and I wanted to try something different. I tried to press but I couldn't make a move."
