Suzanne Birt -- a 14-time Scotties Tournament of Hearts participant and one of Prince Edward Island's most celebrated curlers -- is making her long-awaited comeback. Reuniting with Third Michelle Shea, Second Meaghan Hughes, and Lead Sinead Dolan, and bringing legendary Island curler Kathy O'Rourke back behind the glass as coach, Team Birt is officially back in business for the 2026-27 season. The timing couldn't be more meaningful -- and for a team that has claimed the PEI Scotties title more than a dozen times, the chance to compete on home ice is exactly the kind of motivation that pulls a champion back.
