2021 Champions Cup (curling)

The 2021 Humpty's Champions Cup, a curling Grand Slam event, was held April 15–19, 2021 at the Markin MacPhail Centre at Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, Alberta. Two days before the event was supposed to begin on Monday, April 12, the organizers delayed its start time by one day due to the (false) positive COVID-19 tests from the 2021 World Men's Curling Championship, which was held at the same site from April 2–11.[2]

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, it was announced that both the Champions Cup and the Players' Championship Grand Slam of Curling events would still be held in the 2020–21 curling season but would move to a centralized "bubble" (similar to that of the NHL as in Edmonton) at Canada Olympic Park alongside Curling Canada's national championships. All events will be held behind closed doors with no spectators.[3] Due to the pandemic, it is the first Grand Slam event to be held since the 2020 Canadian Open held in January 2020.

The event utilized the "no tick rule", an experimental rule in which any guard rock touching the centre line may not be moved off of the centre line by an opposing stone until the sixth rock of the end.[4]

On the men's side, Bruce Mouat of Scotland won his second career Grand Slam by defeating Team Brendan Bottcher 6–3 in the final. Mouat previously won the 2017 Boost National.[5]

On the women's side, Rachel Homan of Ottawa also won 6–3 in the final, doubling up on Team Silvana Tirinzoni of Switzerland. It was Homan's eleventh Grand Slam title.[6]

Qualification

The top 12 ranked men's and women's teams on the World Curling Federation's world team rankings qualified for the event.[7] In the event that a team declines their invitation, the next-ranked team on the world team ranking is invited until the field is complete.

Notes

  1. Colton Lott is playing third on Team Epping as Ryan Fry is staying home due to family commitments.[16]
  2. Tyler Tardi is playing third and Carruthers is skipping Team McEwen as Mike McEwen is staying home due to family commitments.[22]
  3. Team McEwen is playing with three players this week, with their lead Colin Hodgson staying home due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  4. Only one tiebreaker match could be played, forcing Team Dunstone, who had the lowest draw shot challenge score to miss the playoffs.[26]
  5. After originally announcing that Laura Walker would spare as third for Team Homan as Rachel Homan was expecting her second child,[33] Homan returned to the team in time for the event, shifting Walker to alternate.
  6. Yulia Portunova is replacing Maria Komarova on Team Kovaleva, who is skipping the team at the Russian Curling Championships.
