HONG KONG—Hong Kong International Raymond Ho won his third National Knock-out Singles title after defeating Robin Chok from Craigengower Cricket Club in the final last Sunday Jan 8, 2017.

A total of 178 bowlers participated in the annual tournament, which was played in six clubs around Hong Kong, with the finals played at Hong Kong Football Club.

Ho, who represented Kowloon Bowling Green Club, has won the tournament twice before, in 2007 and 2011. He was with the Hong Kong team that competed at the World Bowls Championship in Christchurch last December and was in good form.  Ho defeated seven strong players, including Hong Kong Youth Team players James Tang, TH Po, last year’s runners-up Jordi Lo and Macau International Johnny Ng, to reach the final.
