Jones is a six-time Canadian champion.

Three-time champion Rachel Homan of Ontario opened with a 12-3 victory over Stacie Curtis of Newfoundland and Labrador in the tournament’s second draw.

Casey Scheidegger’s wild-card team from Lethbridge, Alta., defeated another wild card, Meghan Walter of East St. Paul, Man., 5-3.
