Chiaki Matsumura (松村 千秋, Chiaki Matsumura, born October 26, 1992) is a Japanese curler from Karuizawa Town, Nagano Prefecture. After graduating from Nagano Prefectural Komoro Business High School [ja] in 2011, she has been a member of Chubu Electric Power Curling Team [ja], a works team of Chubu Electric Power.[1]

Career

Matsumura was a member of the Japanese national women's team in the 2012–13 curling season, and appeared at the Pacific-Asia Championships and at the World Championship as the lead of Satsuki Fujisawa's rink. She also participated in the Continental Cup of Curling in 2014.[2]

In February 2017, she won the national Japanese women's curling championship Japan Curling Championships against Team Fujisawa (a.k.a. LS Kitami) and became the champion of Japan.[3] Later that year, she lost the best-of-five Japanese Olympic Curling Trials, three games to one.[4]

In 2019, Matsumura and her rink of Seina Nakajima, Ikue Kitazawa and Hasumi Ishigooka represented Japan at the 2019 World Women's Curling Championship after going undefeated at the 2019 Japanese women's championship. At the world championships, the team squeaked into the playoffs with a 6-6 record, before upsetting the third place Russian team in the quarterfinals. They then lost to Sweden in the semifinal, and lost to South Korea in the bronze medal game, settling for fourth place.[5][6]

Matsumura and her team represented Japan at the 2019 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships in Shenzhen, China the following season. After going 6-1 in the round robin and defeating Hong Kong in the semi-final, they lost in the final to China's Han Yu.
