Canada’s Kristie Moore could become the first pregnant woman in almost 90 years – and the most heavily pregnant woman ever – to win an Olympic medal. And it’s a feat she could achieve without having to compete.
Moore, who is 5½ months into her pregnancy, is the fifth member, or “alternate”, in the four-women Canadian curling team at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. As such, she would get a chance to compete only if one of the other players was injured.
