The women's curling tournament of the 2014 Winter Olympics was held at the Ice Cube Curling Center in Sochi, Russia on 10–20 February 2014.[1] Ten nations competed in the round robin preliminary round, and the top four nations at the conclusion of the round robin qualified for the medal round.[2] South Korea made their Olympic debut in curling.

A new Olympic record was established when Great Britain scored seven points in one end against the United States.[3] Great Britain also equalled the record for total points scored in one game, scoring twelve points against the United States and against Japan. Canada, skipped by Jennifer Jones, became the first women's rink to go through an Olympic tournament undefeated.[4] Great Britain, by winning the bronze medal became the youngest rink to ever step onto an Olympic curling podium.[5]
