OK, going into tomorrow's final 4 women's matches we have :

Final matches : GB vs Italy, Switzerland vs USA, Canada vs South Korea. Japan vs China

Switzerland: Played 9, won 7, lost 2 ( into the SF )
Sweden: Played 8, won 6, lost 2 ( into the SF )

Canada: Played 8, won 5, lost 3
South Korea: Played 8, won 5 lost 3
( these two meet so one will move onto 6 wins and qualify for the SF )

USA: Played 8, won 5, lost 3 ( a win will see them into the SF )

GB; Played 8, won 4, lost 4 ( must win and hope )

Denmark: Played 9, won 4, lost 5 ( over and out )

The essentials for GB:
GB must beat Italy, and
Switzerland lmust beat USA ( to stop 4 teams going onto 6 or more wins )

If these 2 results happen, we will be tied 4th in wins with USA and either Canada or South Korea

If we were then tied with USA and Canada, we should get the finsl SF spot on H2Hs since we would have beaten both USA and Canada ( so ideally we would prefer South Korea to beat Canada ).

If instead we were then tied with USA and South Korea each nation would have won one and lost one in the results among the 3 of them - and then it appears draw shot challenge would resolve who the 4th semi finalist would be.

Thst's what I think anyway.

 And we are currently ahead of those teams on draw shot challenge. So hopefully we and Switzerland win and job is a good un. 

cheers

 Thanks Jon, I hadn't got my head around the draw shot challenge positions, so it wouldn't matter who won between South Korea and Canada, as long as we kept ahead of both South Korea and USA in the draw shot challenge.
