The 2018–19 Curling World Cup was the first edition of the Curling World Cup, held between men's, women's, and mixed doubles teams. It had three legs and a Grand Final, taking place in Suzhou, China, Omaha, United States, Jönköping, Sweden, and Beijing, China respectively.[1]

Format

Curling World Cup matches have eight ends, rather than the standard ten ends. Ties after eight ends are decided by a shoot-out, with each team throwing a stone and the one closest to the button winning. A win in eight or fewer ends earns a team 3 points, a shoot-out win 2 points, a shoot-out loss 1 point, and 0 points for a loss in eight or fewer ends.[2]

Each event has eight teams in the men's, women's, and mixed doubles tournament. The teams are split into two groups of four, based on the Curling World Cup rankings, whereby the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th, ranked teams are in one group and the 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th ranked teams in the other. The first place teams in each group plays against each other in the final. In the event of a tie for first place, a shoot-out is used, with the same format used to decide matches tied after eight ends.[2]

Qualification

For the first three legs of the Curling World Cup, the eight spots in the tournament are allocated to each of the hosting member associations, the highest ranked member association in each zone (the Americas, European, and Pacific-Asia), and two teams chosen by the World Curling Federation. Member associations may choose to send the same teams to all three legs or have different teams.[3]

The following countries qualified for each discipline:[3]

Qualification method Women Men Mixed doubles
Hosting member association  China  China  China
 United States  United States  United States
 Sweden  Sweden  Sweden
Highest ranked member association in the Americas zone  Canada  Canada  Canada
Highest ranked member association in the European zone  Scotland  Switzerland  Switzerland
Highest ranked member association in the Pacific-Asia zone  South Korea  Japan  South Korea
Selected by World Curling Federation  Japan  Norway  Russia
 Russia  Scotland  Norway

The host (China), the winners of each leg, the current world champions, a team specifically invited, and the two highest remaining member associations on the Curling World Cup ranking list qualified for the Grand Final. Two separate teams from the same member association may qualify for the Grand Final.[3]

The following countries qualified for each discipline:[3]

Notes
  1. ^ Team Homan is being replaced by a team consisting of Jennifer Jones, Kaitlyn Lawes, Shannon Birchard and Jill Officer due to Homan and her second Joanne Courtney being due to give birth in the summer.[4]
  2. ^ The 2018 World Mixed Doubles Curling Champions, Michèle Jäggi and Sven Michel, were selected to compete due to the short time between the 2019 Championship and the Grand Final.[5]
  3. ^ With Team Edin already qualified for the Grand Final, Switzerland, the highest-ranked country not yet qualified, was invited.[6]
  4. ^ In each discipline, the WCF chose to invite the highest-ranked country not yet qualified.

Ranking points

Ranking points were assigned in each of the first three legs to determine the final member associations qualified for the Grand Final. Member associations were awarded their points from round robin play as well as 5 points for the runner-up and 10 for the champion.[7]
