Ice, Fire, and Passion How PH Curling Team Wins Gold at Asian Winter Games

The Philippines' national men's curling team has made history by winning their first-ever Asian Winter Games gold medal in Harbin, China. This achievement is a testament to the power of perseverance, teamwork, and victory.

For those unfamiliar with the game of curling, it is a unique sport where two teams of four players each slide polished granite stones called rocks on a surface of ice toward a target area or the house. The stone that ends up closest to the house earns a point, and the team with the highest number of points wins.

In the final game of the Asian Winter Games, the Philippines' quintet of Marc Angelo Pfister, Alan Beat Frei, Christian Patrick Haller, Enrico Gabriel Pfister, and Benjo Delarmente defeated South Korea 5-3 to clinch the victory. Although they led 3-1 after the first half, the team staved off a comeback by the Koreans before the last two ends of the game that saw them score two points to secure the win.

The journey to this historic moment was not without its challenges. The Filipinos had previously defeated Kazakhstan 4-1, Kyrgyzstan 12-2, and Taiwan 11-3, before dominating Japan 10-4 in the qualifications. On Thursday, they faced host China in the semifinals, trailing 4-1 in the first half, but rallied to pull ahead, 7-6.

In a congratulatory statement, Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) Chairman Richard Bachmann said that this achievement is more than just a milestone – it's the result of strong collaboration between the POC and the Philippine Sports Commission. He also expressed confidence that this performance will lay the foundation for greater challenges ahead, including achieving Winter Olympic and world-level success in the years to come.

The Harbin Games drew to a close on Friday, with Saudi Arabia set to host the 2029 edition. As we celebrate this historic win, let's also acknowledge the potential for innovation and growth in the world of curling. Who knows what the future holds?
