The 2019 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Canada's national women's curling championship, was held from February 16 to 24 at the Centre 200 in Sydney, Nova Scotia. The winning team represented Canada at the 2019 World Women's Curling Championship held from March 16 to 24 at the Silkeborg Sportscenter in Silkeborg, Denmark. The final game featured the largest comeback in Scotties Finals history (according to TSN statistics). Alberta's Chelsea Carey came back from a 5–1 deficit, winning the championship 8–6 thanks to 5 total steal points in the second half, and two dramatic misses by Ontario's Rachel Homan.[1]
This year's tournament was notable for Nunavut winning their first Scotties round robin game ever, defeating Quebec's Gabrielle Lavoie 4–3 in Draw 1;[2] and the highest scoring game ever at a Canadian women's curling championship in Draw 10 with Prince Edward Island's Suzanne Birt winning 13–12 in an extra end over New Brunswick's Andrea Crawford, a total match score of 25 points.[3]
Team Canada's Jennifer Jones set a new record for the most Canadian national women's championship game wins as a skip when she skipped the 141st victory of her Scotties career over British Columbia's Sarah Wark in Draw 18 on February 22.[4]
