Le monde du curling vient de perdre une figure emblématique. Nous sommes profondément attristés d’apprendre le décès de Don Duguid, triple champion du Brier, double champion du monde et commentateur de curling de longue date. Nos pensées vont à la famille de Don, à ses amis et à toute la communauté du curling 💛🤎
