Bowlers Vivian Yip and Amy Choi made history today becoming the first local players to win the women’s pairs title at the Hong Kong International Bowls Classic. Yip and Choi defeated Australian Karen Murphy and Kristina Krstic 13:8, 4:11, 2:1 in the final, which was switched from the outdoor natural grass green to the artificial green at Club de Recreio due to heavy rain.
The win rounded-out the tournament perfectly for Hong Kong as local bowlers Dorothy Yu and Jordi Lo had swept the singles title last Sunday.
In the men’s final, Nathan Pedersen and Corey Wedlock from Australia defeated Marc Wyatt and Robert Weale from Wales to lift the title.
