Curling: Jennifer Dodds hopes doubles title can spark Olympics bid


Bruce Mouat and Jen Dodds hope to be selected for Team GB at the Winter OlympicsJennifer Dodds says her gold at the World Curling mixed doubles championships can help secure Olympic qualification for the women's team. Dodds and Bruce Mouat defeated Norway in the final in Aberdeen to win Scotland's first ever world mixed doubles title. It secured Great Britain's place in the event at the Olympics, something which Eve Muirhead's Scotland rink have yet to do for the women's section. The pair are now in pole position for selection to represent Great Britain at the Beijing games next year in the mixed doubles event. Dodds, 29, was part of the Scotland side which missed out on a top-six spot at the women's world championships in Canada earlier this month.
