KELOWNA, B.C. — There will be a new champion at the Montana’s Brier this year.

Alberta’s Brad Jacobs defeated Canada’s Brad Gushue 7-5 in semifinal play today at Prospera Place.

Gushue had a chance to win with his final throw but his tap attempt was heavy.

The loss ended Gushue’s bid to win a record fourth straight Canadian men’s curling championship.

Jacobs will advance to the evening final against top-ranked Matt Dunstone of Manitoba.

Jacobs won his lone Brier crown in 2013 while Dunstone is looking to win it for the first time.
