It's safe to say this is a new one in the world of curling.
Alternate Magnus Nedregotten was subbed into the game in the sixth end as Norway held a comfortable 8-3 lead. Nedregotten used his own broom for a handful of shots before he was told by the official that he should be using the broom of the player he was replacing. Nedregotten changed to the correct sweeping device and the two sides finished the game with England conceding in the 8th end.
"In the men’s round-robin session three on Sunday, November 17, England was awarded a win over Norway, who contravened the Rules of Curling rule C3 relating to the use of a brush by a substitute, resulting in Norway forfeiting the game," the World Curling Federation said in a statement:
Curling is becoming a game of stupid rules and has lost what it used to be about!! Let the curlers rule themselves unless they ask for an umpire to step in to rule on a dispute. SIMPLE!!
