Curling: Austria secures its World Championship ticket at the European Championships!
Austria's curling men finished 7th at the European Championships in Lohja, Finland, missing out on advancing to the semi-finals but qualifying for the 2025 World Championships!
The ÖCV team, who were promoted to the A division in 2023, won three and lost six of their nine games. The team led by skip Mathias Genner was victorious against the Czech Republic (9:8), England (7:2) and on Thursday against the Netherlands (8:6). As a result, they have secured their place and a ticket to the World Championships.
Sweden surprisingly missed out on the semi-finals
A sensation was narrowly missed against world and Olympic champions Sweden on Tuesday. The Austrians only lost 7:6 after an extra end. The Swedes surprisingly missed out on the semi-finals, where they will play Switzerland against defending champions Scotland and Norway against Germany.
The 2025 World Championships will take place at the end of March/beginning of April in Moose Jaw, Canada. Olympic points for the 2026 Winter Games will also be at stake there.
