Gushue dealing with nagging lower-body soreness
Canada skip Brad Gushue has been dealing with some lower-body discomfort over the first few days at the Tim Hortons Brier.
“It feels sometimes like it’s a Whac-a-Mole,” he said. “One day it could be the groin or adductor. The next day it could be the hip flexor and the next day it could be the glute. I’m kind of chasing her around.Gushue still managed to win four of his first five round-robin games but he was pushed hard in every matchup. Two of the victories were one-point decisions and every win went the full 10 ends.
“We knew that worst-case scenario, we go there and we get some good practice for [Alberta] provincials,” Sturmay said. “Best-case scenario, we go there and we win the event like we did and it gives us a bit of a safety net.”
