The 2024 KIOTI National was held from November 26 to December 1 at the Mary Brown's Centre in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador.[1] It was the third Grand Slam event and second major of the 2024–25 curling season.
Scotland's Bruce Mouat rink won their thrid straight Grand Slam title, defeating Brad Jacobs Alberta-based rink in the men's final, 5–3. It was a career 9th Slam win for the Scots, who finished the event with a 6–1 record, and took home 38,000ドル. In the final, Team Jacobs were forced to a single in the first, and responded by forcing Mouat to a draw to tie the game up 1–1 after two. After two blank ends, Mouat forced the Jacobs rink to a draw for one in the fifth after Mouat split the house. Jacobs missed an in-off attempt in the sixth which resulted in a draw for two for Mouat to take a 3–2 lead heading into the last two frames. Mouat forced Jacobs to a single again in seven after making a hit and roll preventing any double takeout opportunities to get a deuce. With the game now tied coming home, Mouat had just an open hit to win the game in the last end, which he made for two, to claim the championship.[2]
The Ottawa-based Rachel Homan rink won their second straight Slam title, defeating Sweden's Anna Hasselborg rink in the women's final, 6–5. It was a career 17th Slam title for Homan, whose team went undefeated at the event to take home 42,000ドル. The team needed comeback wins in all three of their playoff matchups, after being down against Sayaka Yoshimura in the quarters, and Kim Eun-jung in the semis in addition to the final. The game started off with a steal of one for Hasselborg in the first after Homan wrecked on a guard. Homan made a draw for two in the second to take a 2–1 lead, which was followed up by a hit for two for Hasselborg in the third. Hasselborg missed a raise takeout in the fourth, allowing Homan to get two more right back to take a 4–3 lead. Homan forced Hasselborg to one in the sixth, but missed a double raise attempt in the seventh resulting in a steal of one for Hasselborg, who took a 5–4 lead into the last end. On her last rock of the eighth, Homan "chiselled" out a Hasselborg rock to score two, and take the win.[3]
The event was hailed "as the largest Grand Slam of Curling event ... ever hosted", with a total of 104,039 tickets sold, owing to the popularity of the hometown Brad Gushue rink in the province.[4]
Qualification
[edit ]The top 16 ranked men's and women's teams on the World Curling Federation's world team rankings as of October 22, 2024, qualified for the event. The Grand Slam of Curling may fill one spot in each division as a sponsor's exemption. In the event that a team declines their invitation, the next-ranked team on the world team ranking is invited until the field is complete.[5] 2024 Tour Challenge Tier 2 champion Christina Black competed in this event as opposed to the 2025 Masters as it conflicts with the 2025 Nova Scotia Scotties Tournament of Hearts.
