Biography

Emira Abbes (born 6 September 1996) is a German curler from Füssen.

Career

Abbes was a member of the German team at the 2017 Winter Universiade, playing second on a team skipped by Maike Beer. The team finished in 8th.

Abbes became the alternate on the German national women's team (skipped by Daniela Jentsch) in 2017. As the team's alternate, she played in the 2017 World Women's Curling Championship. The team was sitting at 5-4 with two games left. The Germans had a chance to qualify for the playoffs. Unfortunately, they would lose their last two games to Scotland and Czech Republic, ending their chance to reach the playoffs. That season, the German team was met with disappointment. They tried to qualify for the Olympic Games, at the 2018 Winter Olympic qualification event, but they finished with a record of 2-4, missing the playoffs.

The next season, the team qualified for the Worlds again after going 3-6 at the Euros. But the team struggled at the World Championship, finishing in 12th with a 3-9 record. The following season, the Germans would have success at the Europeans. The team reached the playoffs at Abbes first European Curling Championships with a 5-4 record. In the semi-final, they lost to the Swiss team Silvana Tirinzoni 6-4. In the Bronze Medal Game though, the Germans turned things around. The team would win the game 7-4, winning them the Bronze Medal. It was her first medal at an international competition. Abbes also won her second tour event this season. Two months after the Europeans, the team won the Qinghai Curling Elite. At the Worlds, her team of Daniela Jentsch, Klara-Hermine Fomm and Analena Jentsch were sitting at 4-6 after their tenth game with two still to play. The team had a chance clinch a playoff spot. But they lost their next game eliminating them from contention. The team did have a good final game though, beating eventual winners Switzerland 10-8 after scoring four in the last end.

Team Jentsch's first event of the 2019–20 season was at the 2019 Cargill Curling Training Centre Icebreaker where they lost in the quarterfinals. They had semi-final finishes at the 2019 Cameron's Brewing Oakville Fall Classic and Prestige Hotels & Resorts Curling Classic and "C Qualifier" finishes at the 2019 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic and 2019 Canad Inns Women's Classic. The German team also qualified for their first Grand Slam of Curling event, the 2019 Tour Challenge Tier 2 where they went 1-3, missing the playoffs. At the 2019 European Curling Championships, the team did not qualify for the playoffs like in 2018, finishing the round-robin in 5th place with a 5-4 record.
