Gregory "Greg" McAulay[1] (born January 2, 1960) is a Canadian World champion curler from Richmond, British Columbia.
Career
McAulay has been to only two Briers in his career. At the 1998 Labatt Brier, he skipped his British Columbia team to a 7-4 finish before losing to Saskatchewan (skipped by Rod Montgomery) in a tie-breaker.
Two years later, McAulay was back at the Brier. In the 2000 Labatt Brier, his team of himself, Brent Pierce, Bryan Miki and Jody Sveistrup finished with an impressive 9-2 record to finish in first place after the round robin. In the playoffs, he defeated Russ Howard's New Brunswick rink twice to capture his first and only Brier title. This qualified McAulay for the 2000 Ford World Curling Championships, where he would skip the Canadian team. At the Worlds, he finished with an 8-1 record. He defeated Craig Brown's American rink in the semi-final then Peja Lindholm's Swedish rink in the final.
After his World Championship victory in 2000, he has not been able to return to the Brier.
