A total of 2,871 athletes from 92 countries will compete in 116 events across eight sports and 16 disciplines, including the debut of ski mountaineering.

Earlier this week we saw heartbreak for Scottish curlers Bruce Mouat and Jennifer Dodds as they lost a mixed doubles curling bronze match for the second time in succession - this time to home favourites Italy.

But there’s no time for them to contemplate that loss with the men’s team back on the ice yesterday and the women starting their campaign today.
