While most of the curling championship does require a subscription to a curling-specific site, the semis medal games might be streamed for free on olympics.com. That was the case for Women's Worlds.

I was so relieved when I opened this and saw that the hockey and curling had both made the list; it made my choice so much easier 😅

(Also, hi from the World Figure Skating Championships!)

Okay, so my favorite sports thing of the week: at the NCAA fencing championships, the first epee semifinal featured Mo El-sayed of LIU and Mahmoud El-sayed of Wayne State. They're brothers! Both fenced for Egypt in Paris, with Mo winning bronze. (Folks might remember his dramatic celebrations.) This semi was *really* tight and back and forth, and Mo won 15-14 before going on to win the title. Right after the last touch, even before salutes, Mahmoud just fell into Mo's arms for a hug. Mo also went over to hug one of the Wayne State coaches... their *older* brother Ahmed, whom Mo had faced in the NCAA tournament in 2023.
