In the final, Yannick Schwaller and his team from Bern defeated the Peter de Cruz rink from Geneva in a rematch of the 2021 Swiss Men's Curling Championship final. The final also served as a precursor for the 2021 Swiss Olympic Curling Trials which will be held September 22–26 to determine the Swiss team that will represent Switzerland at the 2022 Winter Olympics. To reach the final, Schwaller defeated the 2021 World Champions and reigning Baden Masters champions Team Niklas Edin from Karlstad, Sweden 5–4 and de Cruz beat the Steffen Walstad rink from Oslo, Norway 5–3. Teams Noé Traub, Joël Retornaz, Yves Stocker and Magnus Ramsfjell all reached the quarterfinals.

For the first time in the event's twenty-one year history, two women's teams competed alongside the men's field. Originally, two teams from Scotland were scheduled to compete, but had to pull out last minute due to the slow vaccination rate in the United Kingdom.[5] 2018 Olympic Gold Medalists Team Anna Hasselborg from Sweden competed in Pool D and Team Irene Schori of Limmattal, Switzerland competed in Pool B.[6]
