Team GB’s women curlers have “several versions of what success looks like” but will start their Winter Olympics in Cortina on Thursday dreaming of a medal, says Rebecca Morrison.
Britain are the defending champions in the event after winning gold in Beijing four years ago, but only Jen Dodds remains from that rink.
Consequently, they are not considered among the favourites in Italy this month, but European silver for the Scots in November, following on from a sixth-place finish in the Worlds in South Korea earlier in the year, suggests they are not far away.
“We’ve talked about this as a team and we would love to come away with a medal,” Morrison, who plays lead, says. “We know that’s a huge ask, so we’ve also been very real and said we’re not measuring success by a medal.
“If we play amazingly and are happy with our performance, we don’t want to come away and feel devastated just because we don’t have some hardware.”
