Team Rachel Homan struggling at 2026 Olympics: 'The Canadians have not been that good'

Team Rachel Homan has had a disappointing start at the 2026 Winter Olympics, currently holding a 1-2 record in women's curling.

Team Rachel Homan, Canada's top-ranked women’s curling rink, is facing challenges at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina, with a current record of 1-2 after losing to Great Britain. The team's performance has been criticized, as their missed shots have raised eyebrows among fans and commentators alike, showcasing a struggle against the high level of competition. With more difficult matches ahead, including a crucial game against Switzerland, the pressure is mounting on the Canadian team to significantly improve their performance and turn around their fortunes at the Games.

The continued losses have led to disappointment not only within the team but also among Canadian supporters who expect strong performances from their representatives on the international stage. The match against Great Britain highlighted several missed opportunities that could have changed the game's outcome, suggesting that the team must reassess their strategy and execution moving forward. The post-match atmosphere indicates rising concern about whether the Canadians will be able to regain their footing in the competition.

As the Olympics progress, the implications of Team Homan's performance extend beyond just their current standing in the tournament. A poor showing could affect the morale of the team and potentially impact Canada's overall reputation in curling, a sport in which the country has traditionally excelled. The pressure is on for Homan and her team to deliver as they face Switzerland, as any further setbacks could severely impede their chances of advancing in the tournament.
