SHOCKING: Olympic Curling Erupts as Sweden Drops 22-Minute “Proof” Video

It’s only cheating if you get caught — and the Swedish aren’t letting Canada slide on this one.

Oskar Eriksson, a curler for Team Sweden, accused Canadian rival Marc Kennedy of cheating during the 2026 Olympic Games, sparking a global reaction that is still raging.

“You don’t react like that if you know you’re not guilty. I don’t think he slept as well that night as I did. If he now chooses to think he did the right thing, he will have to take responsibility for it,” Eriksson told Swedish outlet Värmlands Folkblad.

Eriksson, 34, called out Kennedy for “double-touching” — touching the stone a second time after it crosses the hog line, which appeared to be confirmed by video that made the rounds on social media.

“He hasn’t dared to look in my direction. He’s probably ashamed,” Eriksson added. “Mature for a 44-year-old father of two.”

Eriksson called Kennedy out on the ice in a scene that went viral.

“Apparently, it’s alright touching the rock after the hog line,” Eriksson said during their Feb. 14 round-robin match.

“You can f–k off,” Kennedy retorted.

The Canadian has continued to deny the accusations.

The following day, the Swiss team also accused Team Canada of “double-touching.”

The World Curling Board released a statement on the allegations, saying they do not use video replay to overturn game decisions, while also clarifying that a second touch of the granite after release is now allowed.

If the granite is touched after it crosses the hog line, it results in that stone being removed from play.

Canada is set to face off against Great Britain in the gold medal match on Saturday afternoon, where certainly all eyes will be on them, and the thinnest of touches will be looked at by fans and referees alike.

Before sunrise, gunfire ripped through Baltimore — and two lives ended before most alarms even rang.  At 6:45 a.m. Wednesday, the quiet was shattered.
