Are in North Bay, Ont at the Worlds.
They're on the ice now, but TSN is only covering the Canucks.
Unless the GG's are in the semi's or finals...I doubt TSN will cover them.
I doubt there are many Korean fanboys who live in North Bay....I've never been there.

Search for World Curling TV on YouTube where they're streaming live matches from the Women's World Curling Championship all this week.
I just checked the channel and it appears that the live streaming is geoblocked but the highlights are not.

Obviously I'm rooting hard for Team Kim, but I can't imagine they've done a lot of training in the past few weeks. It would be incredible to see them put aside the distractions and get far in this tournament, but I'm hoping for the best!

Korea 7-9 Sweden
Hopefully this will be the weakest link in the Garlic Girls' march towards the title. They opened with the hammer but Sweden stole 3 points in the opening end. After Korea strategically blanked the 2nd end to retain last rock they gave up 2 more points in the 3rd before finally getting on the board with 2 in the 4th but they remained behind the rest of the match.

Tuesday's scores:
Korea 8-7 Italy (11 ends)
Korea 12-3 China (6 ends)
Seems that it's worth watching the live streams on whatever platform you have open to you even if the Garlic Girls aren't the featured match because if that should be a blowout as was the case in Korea/China they do focus on another match that's more closely played, such as Sweden/Switzerland.
The match was as good as over after just 2 ends when Team Kim scored 5 off the hammer in the opener and then stole 3 more in the 2nd off of China.

Korea 9-8 USA (11 ends)
Korea 4-8 Canada (9 ends)
The Canadians remain undefeated in the round robin after stealing a total of 3 points off the Korean hammer in the 8th and 9th ends to force the concession. The Garlic Girls have now lost to both of the remaining unbeaten teams in the competition but remain in excellent position to make the medal round at 6-2.
