Scott Andrews (born 14 June 1989) is a Scottish curler.
Andrews had a fairly successful junior career. At the 2008 World Junior Curling Championships, playing second for Glen Muirhead, Scotland finished in 9th place, forcing the team to play in a challenege event to qualify Scotland for the 2009 World Juniors. While The Muirhead rink won the event, they as a team did not qualify out of Scotland to represent the country. Andrews did make it back to the Juniors in 2010, however, playing second for Ally Fraser. They won a silver medal, losing to Switzerland's Peter de Cruz in the final.
After Juniors, Andrews joined up with Brewster's Aberdeen rink. The team won its first Scottish championship in 2011, qualifying them for the 2011 Ford World Men's Curling Championship. The rink lost to Canada in the final and won silver medal.
Andrews went on to claim his second Scottish title at the Cooperative Funeral Care Scottish Men's Championship in 2012, taking Brewster to the World Championships where they lost to Canada in the final and claimed their second silver medal.
David Murdoch joined the rink and skipped Andrews to his third win at the Scottish Championships in 2013. The Men's World Championships 2013 took place in Victoria and the rink claimed the bronze medal after beating Denmark.
February 2014 sees Andrew make his Team GB Winter Olympic debut at the Sochi 2014 games alongside David Murdoch, Michael Goodfellow, Tom Brewster and Greg Drummond. The team took bronze at the 2013 European Championships.[1]
