From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Debbie McCormick (born January 8, 1974 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada as Debbie Henry) is an American curler from Rio, Wisconsin.
McCormick was born in Canada but moved to Madison, Wisconsin when she was very young. Both her parents are Canadian.
McCormick skipped the United States to a World Championship in 2003. She defeated Canada in the final, skipped by Colleen Jones. It was the first time the US had won a World Championships in women's curling and also was McCormick's first international tournament as a skip. She returned to the Worlds once again in 2006 and won silver. McCormick defended her 2006 US title in 2007 by defeating Cassandra Johnson's rink 9-3.
McCormick has played in two other World Championships. She was an alternate in 1996 for Lisa Schoeneberg silver medal winning team. In 2001 she was a third for Kari Erickson's sixth place team.
McCormick has also been to two Olympic games. At the 1998 Winter Olympics she played second for Scoeneberg's fifth place team and at the 2002 Winter Olympics she played third for Erickson's fourth place team.
McCormick also had an impressive junior career winning two silvers and a bronze at various World Junior Curling Championships.
