Madeleine no.5 at the World Juniors
Madeleine and her Danish team of sparkling girls came 5th at the World Junior Championships, held in Ôstersund in the northern part of Sweeden.
In a breathtaking tiebreak battle against Canada, Madeleine & Co had last stone in 10th – and veteran Maddie had to make a double for the win, but unfortunately, it passed right through the two canadians, leaving a steel of three to the canadian girls, whom later got welldeserved bronze-medals, by beating the russians – have a nice trip home, Olga!
Maddie and her grown-up team of women including her big sister (pregnant in 7th month!) are going to Canada on monday on a training camp – just before the womens worlds, in Vernon, is taking place – good luck to the girls, who got silver last year. Eurosport are showing their game against Sweeden on thursday 27th at 10 in the evening.
Denise wins Nationals Mixed Double
Together with her boyfriend – Ulrik Damm – Denise Dupont won the Danish Mixed Double championships, by winning over Rasmus Stjerne and Maria Poulsen, in a thrilling final, played in Hvidovre on the 17th February.
Hereafter they are ready to represent Denmark at The World Mixed Double Championships, taking place in Vierumäki in Finaland in March, unless she wins The Danish Championships for women – then the tight curling scheduale won´t allow here to go to Finland.
Oliver and Madeleine lost the 1/4-final to the same wellplaying Rasmus and Maria – but the Dupont´s got revenge in the final 😉
Bronze at The Nordics!
Madeleine got the bronze medals at this years Nordic Junior Championships, held in Esbjerg on the westcoast of Denmark. She won the bronze medal game, togther with Jeanne, Ivana, Mona and Lisa, by winning with just one stone over Denmark 2, skipped by mette de Neergaard from Hvidovre.
Madeleine playing close to 100 percent in the bronze medal game, had to capture against Sweeden 2 in the semifinal, after loosing the first end 0-3. The team never really got over it and into the game. Sweeden 2, lost later on the final against Sweeden one skipped by Östlund – a team Maddie won against in her first game on friday.
Her fellow teammates did not perform their best in the weekend and they sure have to shappen up, going to The World Junior Championships in Östersund, Sweeden in March, in order to at least win their World junior bronze medals from last year back – maybe even get to the final. This year it´s Maddies last chance to go to World Junior Final – a stunning junior careear is coming to an end.
