Several American curlers from clubs across the country are heading to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina, Italy, representing Team USA in men's and mixed doubles events. Athletes like Luc Violette and Ben Richardson, who honed their skills at Seattle's Granite Curling Club, join mixed doubles pair Korey Dropkin and Cory Thiesse in pursuing Olympic dreams while balancing full-time jobs. The competitions begin on February 4 with mixed doubles preliminaries.
