Curling competition at Calgary, Alberta
The 2023 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic was held from October 6 to 9 at the Calgary Curling Club in Calgary, Alberta. The event was held in a triple-knockout format with a purse of $45,000.
In the final, Gim Eun-ji's Korean championship rink of Kim Min-ji, Kim Su-ji, Seol Ye-eun and Seol Ye-ji successfully defended their 2022 title, scoring an 8–3 win over Japan's Miori Nakamura. The Korean champions opened with a count of two in the opening end. Nakamura then blanked before taking one in the third. Gim extended her lead with three in the fourth before the Japanese responded with two in the fifth. It wouldn't be enough, however, as the Korean side added three more in the sixth to secure the win. Gim was dominant through the event, qualifying through the A event with a 4–0 record. They then beat Jessie Hunkin in the quarterfinals and upended Beth Peterson in the semifinals to reach the final. Team Nakamura qualified for the playoffs through the C side before upsetting Japanese rivals Satsuki Fujisawa in the quarters and knocking off Corryn Brown in the semis. Tabitha Peterson and Michèle Jäggi also qualified for the playoffs but lost in the quarterfinals. It was Team Gim's first tour win of the season.
