Grand Slam events offer a purse of at least CAD$100,000, and feature the best teams from across Canada and around the World.

The other two slams (Tour Challenge and Champions Cup) have unique formats that set them apart from other events on the World Curling Tour. History In 2001, many curlers were upset with the Canadian Curling Association (CCA). Their complaints included the long curling season, not getting ...
