Curling, often known as “chess on ice,” is a unique Winter Olympics sport that tests both physical strength and mental sharpness. In it, players slide heavy granite stones across the ice to land as close as possible to the “house,” aka the target. This requires controlling the speed, angle, and rotation of each throw while strategically outmaneuvering opponents through well-positioned guards and takeouts.

Curling was first introduced at the inaugural 1924 Winter Olympics as a demonstration event before being officially included at the Nagano Winter Games in 1998. A curling match is played in teams of five, with each team competing over 10 rounds (known as “ends”) and throwing eight stones per end.
The team with a stone closest to the center (known as the “button”) at the end of each round scores one or more points, depending on how many stones are near the target. Mixed doubles matches consist of eight ends with five throws per team, featuring one male and one female player per side.
Canada has been the most successful nation in curling, with 12 medals (six gold, three silver, and three bronze), followed by Sweden with 11 medals (four gold, three silver, and four bronze). Don't discount Great Britain either with six medals in total, three of them gold. A total of 120 curling athletes will compete at Milano Cortina 2026, with 10 teams participating across three events: women’s, men’s, and mixed doubles.

Watch Winter Olympics 2026 Curling from anywhere
Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the action on your usual subscription?
You can still watch Winter Olympics 2026 curling live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software can make your devices appear to be back in your home country regardless of where you are, making it ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is Norton VPN — we explain why in our Norton VPN Review.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, Norton VPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. and want to view a Canadian service, you'd select Canada from the server list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to CBC Gem or another streaming service and watch Winter Olympics 2026.
