A tough day for Kim Beaudry and her Fort Frances rink at the Canadian Senior Women’s Curling Championship in Chilliwack.
Beaudry’s foursome dropped both their games yesterday to fall near the bottom of the championship standings.
The Northern Ontario rink lost a close 4-2 decision to Manitoba’s Terry Ursel in the morning draw then conceded a 7-3 loss to Ontario’s Sherry Middaugh after giving up 3 in the seventh end.
Beaudry’s rink needs wins in their games today with Newfoundland and Nova Scotia to keep their chances of a playoff spot alive.
