At the start of Monday, Britain had the chance to open their medal account for the Games by winning two Olympic medals at Livigno Snow Park – and guarantee another if mixed doubles curlers Bruce Mouat and Jen Dodds won their semi-final against Sweden.
But Kirsty Muir fell short of a freeski slopestyle medal by just 0.41 points, and the best the curlers can achieve now is bronze after they were hammered 9-3 by Sweden, with a tense battle for the podium to come on Tuesday.
