In World Men’s Curling Championships Canada’s Brad Gushue scored a 7-4 victory over Sweden’s Niklas Edin.

Brad Gushue has a chance to give his country an achievement it hasn’t reached in 22 years. But more importantly, he has a shot at a huge first for himself and his Canadian teammates.

After almost a decade and a half of chasing his curling dreams, Gushue will play for his first Ford World Men’s Curling Championship gold medal Sunday.
