The South Koreans, ready to concede in the eighth end, were content to peel lone rocks in the rings to accelerate the game's conclusion. The World Curling Federation introduced the Pan Continental Curling Championship this year as a world championship qualifier for all countries outside of Europe, and to provide a regional equivalent to the 46-year-old European Curling Championship.

"The teams that we played probably weren't of the calibre that we see on the Grand Slam circuit, but I think even if we had played this way in the Grand Slams, we would have been there at the end of the week," Gushue said.
