Newfoundland and Labrador’s Brad Gushue rink will play for gold tomorrow at the World Curling Championship in Switzerland.
The Gushue foursome, representing Team Canada, stole three in the sixth end of today’s semifinal against Scotland and never looked back, winning 9-4 when the Scots conceded after eight ends.

It sets up what promises to be a tightly-contested rematch against Sweden, which defeated Italy 5-3 in the other semifinal.
Gushue lost a one-sided match to Sweden in the round robin.
The gold medal game is set for 10:30 a.m. Sunday, Newfoundland time, while the bronze-medal game goes earlier in the day, at 5:30 a.m.
Gushue is seeking his first world title since claiming gold back in 2017.
