Kevin Martin and his teammates clinched the men's world championship curling title in Grand Forks, North Dakota over the weekend. The team from Canada beat out skip David Murdoch and his team from Scotland 6-3 on Sunday to secure the title.
Martin, 41, has seen several world championships and Brier's. One of his most notable accomplishments would be winning the silver medal for Canada at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. The gold medal was won by Norway.
The win here at the 2008 World Championships gives Martin and his team the first birth in the 2009 Olympic qualifier.
Martin's team includes Marc Kennedy, John Morris, and Ben Herbert all of the Edmonton-Calgary area.
