"Cathy King" (born September 3, 1959 in Winnipeg, Manitoba), formerly "Cathy Borst" (Cathy's married name was Borst - when she divorced she went back to her maiden name of King) is a Canada/Canadian curling/curler from St. Albert, Alberta. She is a former Canadian champion skip and world championship bronze medalist, and 2013 world senior champion.

King was a Canadian Junior Curling Championships/national junior champion in 1977 and 1978, before there was a women's world junior championship. In 1988, she played for Alberta at the Canadian Mixed Curling Championship, losing in the final. She has been in seven Scotties Tournament of Hearts (1995, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2005, and 2006). She won the 1998 Scott Tournament of Hearts, and then won a Bronze Medal at the subsequent World Championships behind Elisabet Gustafson's team from Sweden and Helena Blach Lavrsen's team from Denmark.

This year it's our turn to get back into the playoffs again. I hope things are going to work out this week but we've got to make some shots.

They make a lot of shots. They're good and I think they'll be here for a long time to come.

I'm just competitive by nature. Ask anyone who knows me. Anything I play or do, I'm very competitive. I'm competitive in golf, in cards, in whatever. You name it, I'll want to beat you. I just like the satisfaction of winning.

194

It's nice to have a mix of both (youth and experience).

166

I think we've played worse. Once they got that lead on us they were making all the perfect rolls.

149

Hopefully, hopefully, we'll be fine. Getting back to this position for a chance to get back to the Scotts, it's hard to feel comfortable.

147

Hopefully, there's not too many more of those.

143

There's a lot of karma going on right now with things all lining up, so I'm hoping it's all going to work out.

141

We're pretty close. Chemistry in women's curling is huge. Sometimes if you say something the wrong way, women tend to take it personal, whereas with men you can tell them 'you know what?' and they don't really care.
