Scotland's women's curling team suffered back-to-back defeats at the 2026 World Women's Curling Championship, losing to South Korea and Canada in crucial matches. The South Korean team, which finished fifth at the 2026 Winter Olympics, dominated early before Scotland's Eve Muirhead rink managed a single point. Canada then capitalized on a critical steal in the ninth end to secure their victory.

Scotland's campaign has been inconsistent, with wins against Denmark, the United States, and Japan offset by losses to China, Turkey, Switzerland, Sweden, South Korea, and Canada. The team, featuring Lisa Davie, Hailey Duff, and Katie McMillan, is competing in their first World Championships after winning the national title in Dumfries. They stepped up in the absence of Sophie Jackson's Olympic team.

These consecutive losses significantly damage Scotland's playoff hopes in the 13-team tournament. The championship features teams that qualified through the 2025 European and Pan Continental Curling Championships, making competition particularly fierce. Scotland must now win their remaining matches to have any chance of advancing to the knockout stages.
