Which country won gold in the 1924 Olympic curling tournament?

Great Britain won gold in the 1924 Olympic curling tournament. The British team, selected by the Royal Caledonian Curling Club, finished first in the men's round-robin event at Chamonix.

Only three teams competed: Great Britain, Sweden, and France. Great Britain won both of its games, while Sweden finished second with one victory and France finished third without a win. The British team included skip William K. Jackson, Robin Welsh, Thomas Murray, and Laurence Jackson.

This result was later surrounded by an unusual Olympic-status debate. For decades, many references described curling at Chamonix as a demonstration event. In February 2006, however, the International Olympic Committee confirmed that the curling medals belonged to the official 1924 Olympic program, making Great Britain's victory the first Olympic curling gold.

A common mix-up is calling the winner Scotland, since all four players were Scottish and the team was chosen by a Scottish curling organization. The official Olympic result, however, was recorded for Great Britain.
