Canada secures a spot in the semifinals with two dominant wins against Japan and Switzerland. Skip Brad Gushue and his team finish the round robin in second place.

SCHAFFHAUSEN, SwitzerlandCanada clinched a spot in the semifinals at the world men's curling championship with a pair of lopsided wins Friday.

The top two teams advance directly into Saturday's semifinals. Six-time champion Niklas Edin and Sweden had already locked up first place in the standings heading into Friday's final draw. After a blank first end, Canada blew the game open with four in the second. Gushue's squad built on the lead with steals of one in the third and two in the fourth.

Gushue entered the day coming off a 6-5 loss to Edin in the second of his two games on Thursday, ending a five-game winning streak. Canada gave up three points early in that game and couldn't complete a comeback.
