With these changes, curling will move to a two-wave approach for the athletes. The two-wave system allows the athletes from the Mixed Team event to return home at the conclusion of the competition. Then, prior to the beginning of the Mixed Doubles competition, athletes competing in that event will begin arriving at the Games.
