    For the second time in three ends, Czech skip Lukas Klima executes an excellent final throw but again it's only enough to hold Team GB to two points as Bruce Mouat slides in his last stone.

    Tensions rise in the curling after Sweden accuse Canada of double-tapping their stones

    There was a big controversy at the curling last night, as Canada's 8-6 victory over Sweden was overshadowed by a heated exchange the teams' thirds Marc Kennedy and Oskar Eriksson.

    The Swedes believed one of the Canadians was repeatedly double-touching some of his stones - releasing the handle at the appropriate time but then giving the stone another little prod with his finger to correct its course.

    Kennedy and Eriksson's exchange featured some swearing that was picked up by their microphones and broadcast to television viewers.

    This morning, the International Olympic Committee has given its verdict: In short - there will be no action.

    The IOC said that it is satisfied that the rules were followed, and so the result will stand. It also said there have been no complaints from broadcasters about the language used.

    World Curling, interestingly, has put out its own statement this afternoon, saying it will monitor for rule violations during the rest of the Games.

    "It is not possible for World Curling to have game umpires positioned to observe all hog lines for every stone delivery," World Curling said in a statement. "However, beginning with the Saturday [14 February] afternoon session, two officials will move between all four sheets and observe deliveries."

    World Curling also clarified its rules on deliveries, saying: "During forward motion, touching the granite of the stone is not allowed. This will result in the stone being removed from play."

  3. How does biathlon sprint work?published at 13:47 GMT 14 February

    Biathlon - women's 7.5km sprint

    The women's 7.5km sprint in biathlon has just got under way, so here's a quick overview of how it all works...

    Competitors start at 30-second intervals and biathletes complete three laps of the course. At the end of each of the first two laps, competitors stop at the shooting range to fire five shots, for a total of 10 targets.

    The order of shooting positions is prone - lying down - on lap one and standing on lap two.

    Competitors must complete a 150m penalty loop for each target they miss, typically costing them 20 to 30 seconds.

    The biathlete with the quickest time wins. The top 60 qualify for the pursuit event.

    The 29-year-old, who specialises in the slalom and giant slalom, put out two fantastic runs for Switzerland after winning his second world title at the 2025 World Championships.

    He was 1.17 seconds behind pace in the end, which just shows how competitive the overall field was!

    Switzerland's Marco Odermatt takes silver after unsuccessfully defending his Olympic title.

    There will be no gold medal from Milano Cortina for the 28-year-old, but he can be proud of his valiant effort and high-quality skiing.

    A silver medal in the team combined event it is!

    Sweden moved into a 5-2 lead with eight minutes to go, and Slovakia started to lose it a bit.

    A few small scuffles broke out across the ice as tensions boiled over, just as a time-out is called.

    "Please turn your attention to the big screen for a word from our Olympic partners," says the announcer.

    Fat chance, I want to see fights.

    Lucas Pinheiro Braathen claims Brazil's first-ever medal at the Winter Olympics!

    He has single-handedly rewritten the Olympic record books across his two runs at the Stelvio Ski Centre in Bormio.

    What have we just witnessed?! He cannot quite believe it himself - his jaw is well and truly on the floor.

  9. Can Brazil win first ever Winter Olympics medal?published at 13:36 GMT 14 February

    Alpine skiing - men's giant slalom

    So, are we going to see Brazil win its first-ever medal at a Winter Games?

    There's a good chance. Lucas Pinheiro Braathen is top of the leaderboard after the first run, almost a full second faster than Marco Odermatt in second place.

    But Pinheiro Braathen will know all to well he can't take his lead for granted. At Beijing in 2022 - when he competed for Norway - he failed to finish in both the slalom and giant slalom.

    After a brief break from the sport in 2023, he came back in 2024 to represent Brazil as a tribute to his mother, who is from Sao Paolo.

    Let's see what Marco Odermatt can do to defend the title he won in Beijing four years ago...

    He gets off to a flying start, sailing to a 1.09 second advantage in the middle section of the course, before crossing the line 0.59 seconds ahead of pace!

    He clenches his fist in celebration. That's brilliant.

    The Czechs have done well to avert a steal there and take one in the second end. Team GB had things set up nicely but Bruce Mouat can't quite find the shot he needs.

    He guarantees himself an Olympic medal with a fantastic run, making barely any errors and crossing the line 0.28 seconds ahead of pace.
