Scotties Tournament of Hearts 2021: Results, standings, schedule and TV channel
After some uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 Scotties Tournament of Hearts is here.
Canada's national women's curling championship begins on Feb. 19 with 18 teams hitting the sheets in Calgary, Alta. Normally scheduled to take place with 16 teams — and two teams duking it out for a wild-card entry — Curling Canada opted to expand to ensure more than one game for the teams that normally would have played for the last spot because of the travel and COVID-19 protocols undertaken. It marks the first time in the tournament's 40-year history that the field has been expanded.
