1990 World Women's Curling Championship
The 1990 World Women's Curling Championship was held at the Rocklundahallen in Västerås, Sweden from April 1–7. The women's winner was team Norway, skipped by Dordi Nordby. Norway won its first Women's World Championship in Nordby's first season skipping the Norwegian women's team. She defeated Scotland in the final, 4–2, which was skipped by a 21 year-old Carolyn Hutchinson. Norway controlled the game, not letting Scotland play the "come around game". The event was held in conjunction with the 1990 World Men's Curling Championship and was televised in Canada on The Sports Network. Had a team gone undefeated, a four-team playoff would not have been necessary.
