Sherry Anderson: skip, Canada (after 6-2 win over Japan): "That certainly wasn’t my best performance. They made lots of shots and they played good. We struggled with weight to begin with, we were light and I was heavy and we didn’t make a whole bunch of shots and it was fortunate we were only one down with the hammer after the first few ends. I was still feeling confident, but you’ve got to pick it up from that point, which we did."
Susan Kesley; skip, Scotland (after 11-1 win over Ireland): "In the second end, we just kept piling then in and then we had a hit for four. They played really well at the first end and then we just came into our game, giving them shots to make. I have no idea how close we are to qualifying, just one game at a time."
Esther Kobler; third Switzerland (after 5-4 win over Italy): "That was a very important win. It was very tough, and we were very close. At first, we had some problems with the length of our shots, but we had a lot of good shots in the last end, so we’re happy now."
