Players' Championships

The Players' Championships (known as the GP Car and Home Players' Championships for sponsorship reasons) is the final event on the World Curling Tour, and a part of the Grand Slam of Curling, being the only slam to feature both a women's and men's tournament. From 2007 to 2009, it was a qualifying tournament for the Canadian Olympic Curling Trials, and had therefore barred foreign teams from entering (unlike the other Slams).
