On tenterhooks as Rafiq has to wait for other results to know if he makes medal roll-off place


PETALING JAYA: National bowler Rafiq Ismail (pic) faces an anxious wait to see if he has done enough to at least secure Malaysia’s first medal in eight years at the Men’s World Championships in Hong Kong.

The 21-year-old Asian Games gold medallist racked up a decent six-game total of 1,361 pinfalls in Squad 1 to place third in the 136-man standings after the completion of two squads yesterday.
