They were taken to a decider by the experienced Finland team and for Whitlock it meant a lot.
He looked ahead as well and said he’d love to win the tournament and added that they have great chemistry together as a side.
"It means the world to us," said Whitlock. "We are so passionate about our country and this is a great win for us.
"To go 140 and 140 in the last leg you get a little bit of a cushion and we took full advantage of it. I'd love to win this tournament - we play well together and are a great team."
