Canada’s athletes in Sochi: Meet curler Kirsten Wall

Kirsten Wall. Curling team announcement in Winnipeg, MB on December 9, 2013. Canadian Olympic Committee

Sport: Curling

Age: 38

Hometown: Milton, Ont.

Accomplishments:

  • Four-time Bronze medallist at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts.
  • 2003 Canada Cup champion.

Interesting Fact: She is married to another curler, Trevor Wall, who competed in the 2004 Nokia Brier.

Chances: Wall is the fifth member (also called the alternate) on Jennifer Jones’ team, which is expected to medal. Wall may not see much action as she is only there as a safety precaution in case one of the other members cannot participate for some reason.
