Flims, Switzerland – 9 March 2010: In beating Sweden 6-4, Canada broke away to sit alone and undefeated at the top of the junior women’s standings at the World Junior Curling Championships on Tuesday.

Scotland, with Anna Sloan playing fourth stones and Lauren Gray still skipping but playing third, managed to break their losing streak and beat France 8-3.

The United States proved to be in strong form against Germany. Alexandra Carlson’s side secured a steal of two in the eighth end and a steal of four in the ninth to win the game 11-3.
