User:Mosjöberg/Curling records

International curling championship records are officially compiled and maintained largely by the World Curling Federation (WCF), combining results from the Winter Olympic Games, World Curling Championships, World Junior Curling Championships and international regional championships, namely the European Curling Championships and the Pacific-Asia Curling Championships. They also include the relatively new World Mixed Doubles Curling Championships, established in 2008, and the World Mixed Curling Championship, established in 2019. Currently, however, the WCF records list also, however, includes a wide variety of WCF events including those that are invitational, like the [[Curling World Cup] as well as events demonstration and qualification events for WCF events. As the WCF is not the governing body of professional curling or the curling tours, they measure different achievements than international rankings, which are based on seasonal play.

Increasingly, the current records also reflect the evolution of curling as an international sport and the differences in the curling capacity in individual nations. The records for total medals in major international championship events, for example, reflect the considerable historic and ongoing success of Canadian curling, given the number of highly competitive teams in Canada and resources invested, both public and private, in development of the sport within the country. The records for individual achievements in curling, however, reflect the smaller number of active curlers in European countries who compete internationally, which allows those curlers who are most successful to represent their countries repeatedly in major international championships.
