Canada's Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant fell to Scotland's Eve Muirhead and Bobby Lammie 8-4 on Monday in a clash of two of the top teams at the world mixed doubles curling championship.

The win elevates Scotland to 4-0, tied with the United States atop Group B. Canada sits third with Hungary at 3-1. A Canadian deuce in the sixth end tied the game before Scotland scored four in the seventh for the win.

"We knew that was going to be a good game and we'd have to play well," said Peterman. "Even though it was a loss, I think we're feeling pretty confident with how we're throwing and how we played that game,"

Peterman and Gallant are back on the ice Tuesday with two games.

First, they take on Hungary's Ildiko Szekeres and Gyorgy Nagy (3-1), followed by Julie Zelingrova and Vit Chabicovsky (2-2) of the Czech Republic.
