Sweden eats a little in GB’s lead, Niklas Edin cuts Bruce Mouat’s red stone.

Now GB has the hammer for the first time and has a lead of 3-1.

Edin will need to improve its accuracy as it is currently below 50 percent.

Brad Hall and Nick Gleeson needed a perfect race in the two-man bobsled to keep their faint hopes of a bronze medal alive, but when they push for the precious seconds, the bob turns over! It was a dangerous crash but thankfully both riders are okay.

Team GB gets a good start against Sweden and takes a single point lead from the first end when Edin does not manage to clear Mouat’s stone.

There is bad news for Team GB in the men’s aerial qualification as Lloyd Wallace staggers on his landing and a score of 71.94 means he will not advance to the final.

But it is guaranteed to be something of an outrage, after world setter and two-time world champion Maxim Burov was also eliminated after a disappointing second run.

Sweden’s ship, Niklas Edin, is considered one of history’s greatest curlers and has already won five world titles. However, Olympic gold has escaped him so far, where Sweden suffered a shock defeat against the USA in the 2018 final.

There is still plenty of action to keep track of as we approach the end of day 11 in Beijing, including Team GB’s curling match against Sweden, which will start shortly.

Bruce Mouat’s team can seal their semi-final place with a victory but face very strong opposition from the Swedes, led by reigning world champion Niklas Edin.

“I am very excited about playing Sweden,” said Mouat. “They have a lot of Olympic experience and that’s what we play for, the big games and they will be one of the biggest.”

“I think we have a really good track record against them this season. We have played them quite a few times, so we just need to get out and play well, which I feel we do.

“They do the same because they are undefeated so far. We will try to do what we do best, which is to play very technical loss shots, so we’ll see what we get tomorrow.”

Team GB must win its remaining two matches against China and ROC to give themselves a chance at a medal. Both opponents are already undisputed to the playoffs, making Muirhead’s team a strong favorite in each. Their first match, against China, will take place around 1 o’clock tomorrow morning.

McKay falls early in her routine and even though she recovered well, it did damage her score.

It is 52.54 from the judges who place the five-time British national champion in sixth place out of eight skiers so far.

Next up in figure skating for ladies is Team GB’s Natasha McKay. She has one of the weaker sets when it comes to technical difficulties which means she will have to perform her jumps perfectly.

She skates to Little Sparrow by Dolly Parton.

There is another great moment of late drama, this time in Nordic Combined.

Jarls Magnus Riiber, who was the favorite to win the race before he was forced to spend two weeks in isolation, has not had time to train properly on the track and is wrong! He went towards the finish line instead of starting the second lap and when he realized that, his 44 second lead has been decimated.

It is Riiber’s compatriot Joergen Graabak who benefits from the mistake. He rolls in the leading pack right at the finish line to pinch gold, while compatriot Jens Luraas Oftebro pinched silver. Akito Watabe from Japan takes bronze.
