Career

Sutor played in three World Junior-B Curling Championships during his junior career in 2016, 2018 and 2019. He was the alternate for the Marc Muskatewitz rink in 2016, second for the Klaudius Harsch rink in 2018 and third for Sixten Totzek in 2019. [2] After losing the qualifying game in 2016, his team won the bronze medal game at the 2018 World Junior B Curling Championships, sending them to the 2018 World Junior Curling Championships. At the championship, the team just missed the playoffs with a 4–5 record after losing their final round robin draw to Canada's Tyler Tardi. Their fifth-place finish earned the team a spot at the 2019 World Junior Curling Championships without having to qualify through the B Championship. They did not have a good performance at the 2019 championship, finishing with a 3–6 round robin record and being relegated to the B Championship for the following season. They would, however, qualify again through the 2019 World Junior-B Curling Championships in December 2019 to secure a spot at the 2020 World Junior Curling Championships. [3] There, Sutor would have his best finish to date, qualifying for the playoffs for the first time with a 6–3 record. [4] They then lost to Canada's Jacques Gauthier in the semifinal 7–4 and Scotland's James Craik in the bronze medal game 6–5, settling for fourth place.

Sutor competed in his first European Curling Championship in 2019 as second for the German team. There, his team finished with a 3–6 record. The team was set to represent Germany at the 2020 World Men's Curling Championship before the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [5] [6]

Sutor remained as the German National Team's second for the 2020–21 season. They represented Germany at the 2021 World Men's Curling Championship in Calgary, Alberta [7] where they finished with a 4–9 record. [8]

The World Curling Championships are the annual world championships for curling, organized by the World Curling Federation and contested by national championship teams. There are men's, women's and mixed doubles championships, as well as men's and women's versions of junior and senior championships. There is also a world championship for wheelchair curling. The men's championship started in 1959, while the women's started in 1979. The mixed doubles championship was started in 2008. Since 2005, the men's and women's championships have been held in different venues, with Canada hosting one of the two championships every year: the men's championship in odd years, and the women's championship in even years. Canada has dominated both the men's and women's championships since their inception, although Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Scotland, the United States, Norway and China have all won at least one championship.
