32 teams confirmed for 2021 Masters in Oakville

The field has been finalized for the 2021 Masters taking place Oct. 19-24 at Sixteen Mile Sports Complex in Oakville, Ontario.

The Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling season-opening event features 16 of the top men’s teams and 16 of the top women’s teams from around the globe.

New for this year’s Masters is the event will include a triple knockout preliminary round — a bracket format where teams must win three games before they lose three — to determine the eight teams advancing to the quarterfinals in both divisions.

Triple knockout matches will be released at a later date.

Team Dunstone and Team Fleury enter as the defending champions after winning the 2019 Masters titles in North Bay, Ontario. The Masters was not held last season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Two GSOC tournaments were held during the Calgary hub city concept in April with Team Homan capturing the Humpty’s Champions Cup women’s title and Team Einarson winning the Princess Auto Players’ Championship women’s title while Team Mouat swept the men’s titles in both events.
