n major North American sports — and certainly in Canada, curling is among them — Epping stands alone as an openly gay, star male athlete. He is the only one. unquote.
Too bad that the writer didn't do some more fact checking. Let's start with Mark Tewksbury and a number of figure skaters long before John ( oh that's right I can hear you, Are they sports? ) Also there was a SK curler at the Brier who was gay. Let's get the facts straight sportsnet.
Tewksbury did not come out until after he retired from competitive swimming. There are several other athletes who have also done the same. This article is about someone currently playing the game.
