In curling mixed doubles of Asian Winter Games
THE PHILIPPINES’ Marc Pfister and Kathleen Dubberstein smashed Qatar’s Mabarka Al-Abdulla and Nasser Abdulrahman Alyafei, 11-3, on Wednesday to remain unscathed in the curling mixed doubles event of the 9th Asian Winter Games in Harbin, China.
The pair of Mr. Pfister, a Fil-Swede, and Ms. Dubberstein, a Fil-Am, bucked a slow start and climbed back from an early 3-0 deficit to claim their third win in a row and closer to snaring the two semis slots.
The unranked tandem was coming off a shock 12-6 triumph over heavily favored Kim Kyeongae and Jihoon Seong of South Korea and a 10-2 win over Keremet Asanbaeva and Ishkhak Abykeev of Kyrgyzstan the day before.
