CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy—Brad Jacobs led Canada to their first Olympic men’s curling gold since 2014 after beating Britain 9–6 in a hard-fought final at the Winter Games on Saturday that went down to the wire.
Jacobs, who also masterminded Canada’s success in Sochi in 2014, picked up his second gold medal, as did Marc Kennedy and Ben Hebert—who were both part of Kevin Martin’s winning team in Vancouver in 2010.
