The Olympic curling committee issued a warning following a heated match between Sweden and Canada, where accusations of cheating arose. Canadian player Marc Kennedy vehemently denied claims of “double touching” the stone, leading to a confrontation with Swedish rival Oskar Eriksson. The committee stated they would monitor the games more closely and emphasized that inappropriate language would result in further sanctions. Replays indicated Kennedy may have violated the rules, but no penalties were recorded during the match.
