Jennifer Dodds was still the “weird girl” at school when she stayed up late to watch Rhona Martin slide home curling’s so-called ‘Stone of Destiny’ and clinch Great Britain’s first Winter Olympic gold medal since Torvill and Dean in Salt Lake City in 2002.
It was a moment that helped Dodds realise her commitment to sporting success need not be just a pipe dream, and she would be proven correct 20 years later she formed part of Eve Muirhead’s team who emulated Martin’s famous curling triumph in Beijing.
