SINGAPORE — National bowlers Cherie Tan and Muhammad Jaris Goh insist that both retaining the SEA Games men’s and women’s team gold medals would mean more to them than winning individual golds.

SINGAPORE — Most people think of bowling as an individual sport. The bowler stands alone in his lane, bowls without the assistance of others, and then sits alone while waiting for his next turn.

Instrumental in capturing men’s team gold in 2017The 24-year-old is well-regarded as the spark plug among the men’s team, firing up his teammates with his boisterous cheerleading and boundless energy at key competitions. “I used to think I’m an individual player, but I definitely enjoy the energy of our team more nowadays. I think it’s because all of us don’t like seeing any of our teammates go home without a medal, so we try extra hard to push one another to do better.”

Tan herself has been in outstanding form this year, winning two elite competitions – the World Bowling Women’s Championships gold and the QubicaAMF PWBA Players Championship title. “Winning more goals as a team would definitely solidify the idea that we have a world-class group of women’s bowlers.”
