Eve Muirhead landed a hat-trick of world titles as she led her Scottish team to an 8-6 victory over Canada in the final of the World Junior Curling Championships in Vancouver yesterday.
Muirhead's team of Sarah Macintyre, who also now holds three world titles, Vicki Adams and Anna Sloan scored an early two, but it all came down to the tenth end when Canada's final shot failed to dislodge Muirhead's stone.
Muirhead said: "I'm very happy. We all played well from the start.
For the whole last end we just didn't want to lose a two. But when she put her first stone to back-tee we had a chance to put one right on the button.
I couldn't have played my last one any better."
