TAN FINALLY ENDS 9-YEAR WAIT FOR SINGLES WIN

Since emerging victorious at the 2015 SEA Games, Singapore bowler Daphne Tan had failed in her bid to win her next women's singles title.

But her nine-year wait finally ended on Sept 18 when she came out tops from an 83-player field at the Sept 14-26 Asian Tenpin Bowling Championships in Bangkok.

At the Blu-O Rhythm & Bowl, Tan knocked down 1,382 pinfalls, 29 ahead of the Philippines' second-placed Marian Posadas (1,353). South Korea's Baek Seungja finished third with 1,340.

In the process, the 34-year-old successfully defended Singapore's women's singles title, which was won by older sister Cherie in the last edition. This is just Singapore's second win in the event at the biennial tournament.
