Team Kim, the women’s national curling team, lost to Switzerland in the final of the World Championships and was runners-up.
Team Kim lost 6-7 to Team Tirinzoni of Switzerland in the final of the 2022 Women’s Curling World Championships held in Prince George, Canada on the 28th (Korean time).
Tim Kim, who made it to the finals of the world championship for the first time in Korean curling history, tried to win the championship, but might not overcome the wall of European powerhouse Switzerland.
Although he missed the championship, Tim Kim made a new history in Korean curling by taking the runner-up with the best record in the history of world championships.
At the Beijing Winter Olympics last month, he was eliminated from the preliminary round in 8th place, and he also brushed off his disappointment that he failed to win two consecutive Olympic medals.
The best result for Korea was that Chuncheon City Hall’s ‘Team Minji’ won the bronze medal in the 2019 competition.
Switzerland achieved a perfect victory in this tournament with a record of 14 wins and no losses in 14 matches, including 12 consecutive qualifiers. yunhap news
