David Hay: Team GB "can handle the big day"

Great Britain curling team leader David Hay feels that the women's team led by Eve Muirhead can handle the pressure of the semi-final clash against Canada.

Great Britain curling team leader David Hay believes that Eve Muirhead and her team are more than capable of beating unbeaten Canada in the semi-finals of the Winter Olympics.

Team GB will take on Jennifer Jones's team after losing to Denmark on Monday, but Hay feels that the team can cope with the pressure of the occasion.

Hay told reporters: "We're definitely better at knockout than round-robin curling, for certain. Eve's won the World Junior Championship four times, seniors and Europeans, so they can handle the big day."

Muirhead and her side face off against Canada later today.
