Strike Of Destiny - Li Jane Makes History at US Women's Open

Last week, national bowler Sin Li Jane carved her name into sporting folklore by triumphing at the US Women's Open in Indianapolis, becoming the first Malaysian and only the second Asian to claim this illustrious title. A revered luminary in the bowling community, before this historic feat, she has accumulated a treasure trove of medals from the Asian Games and World Championships, establishing her as one of the country's best athletes. After a significant five-year hiatus from the PWBA tour, she made a sensational return this season 2024 - so far winning three titles & her very first major in the US Women's Open. She's currently ear-marked to win the PWBA Player of the Year award. In this episode, she shares her reflections on this historic victory, her inspiring return to the tour, and the profound impact her success is having on aspiring athletes in Malaysia.
