About Emma Miskew

Emma Kathryn Miskew is a Canadian curler and an Olympics bronze medalist. She is a three-time World and five-time Canadian champion curler as a member of the Rachel Homan rink. She was Homan's longtime third until 2022 when she moved to second, when Tracy Fleury was added to the team. In addition to their World and Canadian championships, the Homan team represented Canada at the 2018 and 2026 Winter Olympics. The team won the bronze medal in 2026 edition of the event. Miskew's first two years at the junior level were somewhat disappointing, as her top-rated team failed to win a provincial championship. She and Homan had won four championships while no other curler had won even twice. Their bantam rink qualified for the 2007 Canada Winter Games in Whitehorse, Yukon, where Team Ontario won to a gold medal. The Homan rink won the 2010 provincial championship and went on to represent Ontario at the 2010 Canadian Junior Curling Championships.
