Rachel Homan Leads Team Canada in Must-Win Olympic Curling Showdown for Bronze—How to Watch Live

Canada skip Rachel Homan and her Ottawa-based rink will take one last shot at the podium after falling 6–3 to Sweden’s Anna Hasselborg in Friday’s Olympic semifinal at Cortina Curling Olympic Stadium. Homan, vice-skip Tracy Fleury, second Emma Miskew and lead Sarah Wilkes struggled to generate a multi-point end, surrendering a crucial steal in the seventh before Sweden ran them out of stones in the tenth. “It was a grind out there…we’ll come back tomorrow and try to be sharp,” Miskew said. The loss sets up a bronze-medal clash with Team USA skipped by Tabitha Peterson on Saturday, 22 February, at 8:05 a.m. ET (5:05 a.m. PT). CBC will stream the game live across its digital platforms as part of its Milano-Cortina 2026 coverage. Team Homan reached the playoffs the hard way. After opening round-robin play 1-3, the Canadians reeled off five straight victories to squeeze into the semifinal, showing the resilience that has defined their 2025-26 season. A podium finish would cap a remarkable Olympic return for Homan, whose last Games appearance ended in heartbreak eight years ago. Victory on Saturday would also give Canada its first women’s curling medal since 2014, restoring the country’s dominance on Olympic ice.
