OAKVILLE, Ont. – Kerri Einarson defeated Rachel Homan 6-5 on Sunday to win the Grand Slam of Curling’s Masters event at the Sixteen Mile Sports Complex.
Einarson, from Camp Morton, Man., made a double takeout with her final shot for the extra-end victory. It was her fifth career Grand Slam title.
Homan, from Ottawa, forced an extra end when she scored a single point on an in-off.
Einarson opened the game with a deuce but Homan moved in front with a three-ender in the fifth. Einarson answered with a pair in the sixth and the teams blanked the seventh.
The loss ended Homan’s 15-game winning streak.
