Some good sporting news this weekend - Scotland qualified for the final of the men`s World Curling Championship yesterday by beating Sweden in the QF and host nation, Canada, in the SF. They play Switzerland in the Final tonight starting at 10pm. It can be viewed on the BBC Sport website or BBC iPlayer.

Yeah, Scotland were the only team to beat them in the Round Robin stage and clinched the SF with two against the hammer in the 10th end.

Ridiculous that a Scottish world final isn`t on mainstream TV.. obviously must be women`s football on instead 😁

Outstanding achievement. STV lauding Stirling as the centre of the sport in Scotland - might not go down too well with the Bells Sport Centre folks in Perth .

I’m in the PEAK regularly - think it has been selected due to Perth uncertain future.

The Bells Sports Centre has probably been on the uncertain future radar that long due to its ageing facilities.

Must be nearly 60 years old now ?

Team Mouat will meet Team Schwaller in the final of the Players Championship, just one week on from the pair facing off for the World Men`s Curling Championship title. The Scots progressed to another final - which will be shown live on the BBC Sport website and app - by beating Team Jacobs 6-2. Meanwhile, Yannick Schwaller`s Swiss side set up a second showpiece encounter in the space of a week by dispatching Team Dunstone.

Schwaller`s rink were defeated 5-4 by Bruce Mouat and his team in a dramatic world final in Moose Jaw, Canada. Now the Swiss will seek to right the wrongs of that loss in Sunday`s final in Toronto, which will be played at 21:00 BST.

Team Schwaller finished above Team Mouat in Pool A, with both teams winning four and losing once. Ross Whyte`s rink were the only team to defeat their follow Scots at the pool stage but failed to reach the play-offs.

Team Mouat win again :-

`Bruce Mouat`s world champions completed an "unbelievable" season by beating Team Schwaller to win the Players Championship and become the first rink ever to win four Grand Slams in one season.

With Ross Whyte`s rink winning the other Grand Slam event, it means that all five titles have gone to Scottish rinks.

Team Mouat`s 6-5 success was their third victory in a week over Yannick Schwaller`s rink, having beaten the Swiss in last Sunday`s World Men`s Curling Championship final and then in the group stage in Toronto.`
