The 2024 Karuizawa International Curling Championships were held from December 13 to 15 at the Karuizawa Ice Park in Karuizawa, Nagano, Japan.[1] The total purse for the event was ¥ 1,500,000 on both the men's and women's sides.[2][3]

In the men's final, Germany's Marc Muskatewitz capped off an undefeated run by downing Tsuyoshi Yamaguchi, skipping Team Riku Yanagisawa, 10–4 in the championship game. It was a second title for the German rink of Muskatewitz, Benjamin Kapp, Felix Messenzehl, Johannes Scheuerl and Mario Trevisiol who also won the 2024 European Curling Championships the month prior. After opening with a count of two, the Germans got four in the fifth end and three in the seventh end while Yanagisawa could only count two singles and a pair across the seven ends played. Muskatewitz became the fourth men's skip from Europe to win the event following Markku Uusipaavalniemi (2001), David Murdoch (2015) and Tom Brewster (2016). Switzerland's Michael Brunner took third place with a 7–3 win over Sapporo's Shinya Abe. Both Italy's Joël Retornaz and Sweden's Niklas Edin, two of the three highest ranked teams entering the event, missed the playoffs in a shocking result.

In the women's final, Sapporo's Sayaka Yoshimura scored three in the eighth end to defeat Sweden's Anna Hasselborg 5–4. Facing one on her last rock, Hasselborg tried to pick the lone Yoshimura stone out of the rings but rubbed her own rock in the top twelve, doubling out her own counters instead.[4] It was a second title at the event for Yoshimura who also won in 2015 as part of the Ayumi Ogasawara rink. The previous two years, her team of Kaho Onodera, Yuna Kotani, Anna Ohmiya and Mina Kobayashi reached the playoffs but lost in the semifinal to Kim Eun-jung. It was the teams second tour win of the year after winning the ADVICS Cup in August. In the third-place game, Switzerland's Silvana Tirinzoni avenged her round robin loss against Miyu Ueno by defeating the Japanese team 5–3. Canada's Selena Sturmay and defending champion Ikue Kitazawa both missed the playoffs.
