Rhona skipped the British curling team to victory at the Salt Lake City 2002 Olympic Winter Games. It came down to the very last stone, which Rhona held her nerve and delivered perfectly to secure a narrow 4-3 win for Team GB. Rhona, her team of Scottish curlers and the aptly named "Stone of Destiny" went on to become sporting icons. This success was achieved despite the fact the team were all in full-time jobs or full-time mothers, only becoming full-time curlers for the four months leading up to the Games. Rhona is still involved with curling, predominantly as the Scottish junior curling coach where she can give back to the sport and use her experiences to inspire others. Rhona is also involved with UK Sport's elite coaching programme, and worked as a commentator for the BBC during Vancouver 2010.
