Losses by way of Switzerland and the Russians ensured idle Canada (5-3) will end within the best 4 within the males’s standings.
Gushue’s ultimate round-robin recreation is Wednesday at 8:05 p.m. ET in opposition to reigning Global Championship runner-up Bruce Mouat (7-1) of Nice Britain, who’s tied with Sweden’s Niklas Edin for best spot.
A win within the finale would lock Canada into 3rd position.
Reigning Olympic champ John Shuster (4-4) of the USA, who beat Edin within the 2018 Pyeongchang ultimate, can wrap up the fourth semifinal spot with a win over Denmark within the ultimate draw.
The lads’s semifinals are Thursday at 7:05 a.m. ET.
