Bruce Mouat, Grant Hardie, Hammy McMillan and Bobby Lammie will face Canada in the men's curling final at the 2026 Winter Olympics, aiming to end a 102-year gold medal drought for Team GB. The Scots, who won silver in Beijing 2022, have dominated the sport since, claiming two World Championships and 12 Grand Slam titles.

Their journey began nine years ago when the four Edinburgh school friends formed a team with Olympic gold as their sole ambition. British Curling accepted their ultimatum to join the elite program as a unit rather than individually. Mouat, considered among the greatest skips ever, leads a team where each member brings unique strengths - Hardie as tactician, McMillan and Lammie as revolutionary sweepers.

Despite a shaky round-robin performance in Cortina, the team found their form in the semi-final, defeating Switzerland in a match watched by 3.4 million BBC viewers. Their success stems from total honesty and trust, with teammates comfortable calling out mistakes while respecting each other's different personalities. Saturday's final at the historic Cortina Curling Stadium offers them the chance to become the first British men's rink in over a century to claim Olympic gold.
