Hollie Nicol and her Wilfrid Laurier rinkmates finished the round robin portion of the tournament with a 9-0 mark - clinching top spot in the preliminary portion of the event.
As the top seed from the round robin, the Canadians will face the fourth seed in the semifinal round, but that opponent has yet to be determined. The Canadian win over the Czechs, coupled with Great Britain's 10-5 win over Poland creates a tie for the fourth and final playoff spot. The Czechs will face Great Britain in a tiebreaker Wednesday morning with the winner meeting Canada in Thursday's semifinal.
Pre-tournament favourites Russia and China will meet in the other Thursday semifinal, with the gold medal match slated for Friday.
