Jennifer Jones advanced to Sunday’s final at the Canadian women’s curling championship with a 12-7 semifinal win over fellow Manitoban Kate Cameron in Calgary.
The 49-year-old skip is seeking a record-breaking seventh Scotties Tournament of Hearts title in her final appearance. She will face Ontario’s Rachel Homan.
Jones scored five points in the first end to control the afternoon game early. She added deuces in the third, fifth and seventh ends to keep Cameron chasing. Cameron shook hands after the ninth end.
