John Epping Biography

John Epping is one of the most popular and richest Curler who was born on March 20, 1983 in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. John Allan Epping (born March 20 1983) is a Canadian curler from Toronto, Ontario.

At the Ontario Tankard Epping’s team posted an 8-2 win in the round robin. However, they was defeated by Mark Kean in the final. In 2016, at the Ontario Tankard, Epping and his team again won the round the robin on an 8-2 mark however, they lost at the end of round robin, but this time losing to Glenn Howard.

Epping played in the 2017 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials, but again had a disappointing tournament, finishing with just a 2-6 record. He also competed in the 2018 Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Olympic Trials with Sherry Middaugh, who replaced his usual mixed doubles partner Lisa Weagle, who had qualified in the team event with Rachel Homan. Epping and Middaugh finished the round robin with a 3-5 record and did not make it to the round of 8. Later in the season Epping would win his first ever provincial championship, finally defeating Glenn Howard in the final of the 2018 Ontario Tankard. Thus, the 2018 Tim Hortons Brier would be Epping’s first Brier appearance. There, he led Team Ontario to a 9-2 record after pool play, good enough for second place going into the playoffs. However, they would lose both of their playoff games, settling for third place overall. After the season, the Epping team replaced its front-end with veteran curlers Brent Laing and Craig Savill.

Team Epping won the 2018 Masters, his fourth grand slam title, completing a career Grand Slam for Epping by winning all four “majors”. Thanks to their success during the 2018-19 season, they qualified for the 2019 Tim Hortons Brier Wild Card game, despite losing in the final of the 2019 Ontario Tankard. In the Wild Card game, they lost to the Brendan Bottcher rink 8-4, missing out on playing in the Brier.

Epping along with his teammates Scott Bailey, Scott Howard and David Mathers won the 2012 Players’ Championship. It was the third Grand Slam title of his career, and the first win as skip. This victory helped him earn sufficient CTRS points to earn directly a spot in 2012 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials. In the Trials the team (which was replaced by Howard in the midst of Collin Mitchell) won just one game and placed the last. The following year, Epping formed a new team that included Travis Fanset, Pat Janssen and Tim March. Mat Camm replaced Fanset in the year 2015.
