PETALING JAYA: National bowler Rafiq Ismail paid tribute to late Datuk Dr P.S. Nathan after striking down another gold and one silver to his collection in the Asian Championships in Bangkok yesterday.

Rafiq and Co had been down after finding out about former Malaysian Tenpin Bowling Congress (MTBC) president Nathan’s passing on the eve of the men’s team and All-Events at the Blu–O Rhythm and Bowl and decided to step up their game.
