Subject field(s)
  • Curling
CONT

Delivered with precision, the hammer put out the only opponent's rock sitting in the house while staying in it; this point ties the score and forces an extra end to determine the winner.

OBS

French

Domaine(s)
  • Curling
CONT

Lancé avec précision, le marteau expulse la seule pierre adverse à se trouver dans la maison tout en y demeurant elle-même; ce point annule la marque et force l'ajout d'une manche supplémentaire pour déterminer un gagnant.

OBS

En curling, la prolongation n'est pas du temps de jeu qui s'ajoute à un match, mais une ou des manche(s) supplémentaire(s) à jouer.

OBS

manche supplémentaire : Manche de jeu ajoutée à un match pour briser l'égalité qui subsiste après les manches conventionnelles de jeu.
