Marc Muskatewitz (born 28 January 1996) is a German curler from Kempten.[3]

Muskatewitz started playing curling in 2003,[4] where he had a successful junior career, where he skipped the German junior men’s curling team at two European Junior Curling Challenge events, and later at two World Junior B Curling Championships. While he was still junior age, he won the German Men’s Championship as a second on the Alexander Baumann team, and represented Germany on the national men’s team at multiple European and World Championships.

Muskatewitz started skipping the national men’s curling team at the 2018–19 curling season, with teammates Sixten Totzek, Daniel Neuner, and Ryan Sherrard. The team found success, finishing fourth at the 2018 European Curling Championships, the team also represented Germany at 2019 Worlds, where they finished in 8th place with a 4–8 record. Following the season, Muskatewitz would step back to third position on the team, and Totzek would be the new skip of the new German team, where they would continue to have strong showings at the European and World Men’s championships.

Muskatewitz would return as skip of the German team at 2023–24 curling season, and would join forces with a new team of Benjamin Kapp, Felix Messenzehl, Johannes Scheuerl, Mario Trevisiol, and coached by former teammate Ryan Sherrard. The new team would have a strong showing at the 2024 World Men’s Curling Championships, finishing in 5th place after losing to Italy’s Joël Retornaz in the playoffs. However, the team would build upon this success at the 2024 European Curling Championships, they would beat Scotland’s Bruce Mouat 9–7 in the final to win Germany’s first European medal since 2008, and their first gold since 2004.[5] After winning the European Championships, the team qualified for their first Tier 1 Grand Slam of Curling event, the 2024 National, where they had a strong showing, losing in the quarterfinals to Mike McEwen 6–5. The team also continued to perform well on the world curling circuit, winning the 2024 Karuizawa International Curling Championships. Muskatewtiz would then win the 2025 German Men’s Championship against former skip Sixten Totzek, qualifying his team to represent Germany at the 2025 World Men’s Curling Championship.[6] At the 2025 World’s, team Muskatewitz would finish the round robin with a 5–7 record, finishing outside of the playoffs in 8th place. However, Muskatewitz’s performance over the last two world championships earned Germany enough points to qualify directly for the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Muskatewitz is currently a student.[3]
