Hong Kong Bowling City will host the 2011 WTBA Women's World Championships.

Hussain Al-Suwaidi, UAE and Vanessa Fung (right), Hong Kong, emerged as the men's and women's ABF Tour Ranking winners. The top 16 men and top 16 women in the tour rankings qualified for the Tournament of Champions to be held in January 2011 (date and venue TBA).

In the men's title match Ramadona held of 15-year-old Tony Wong (pictured right), Hong Kong, 213-204, to capture his first career ABF Tour title. Wong stunned Al-Suwaidi in the opening match when he eliminated the ranking winner and Hong Kong Open champion, 222-204.

Ramadona flew past Du Jian Chao, China, in the opening round, 280-224, and then eliminated Eric Lau, Hong Kong, 224-194, and Mi Zhang Li, China, 234-223, on his way to the title match.

The women's title match was an all-Chinese affair with Xu Lan (left) and team mate Chen Dongdong facing off. Xu saved the best for last and easily defeated Chen, 256-173, to celebrate her first career ABF Tour victory.

In the semifinals, Chen defeated ranking winner Fung, 181-168, who was looking for back-to-back ABF Tour titles after her victory in Indonesia. Fung comfortably won the women's rankings with 180 points out of the four women's events in Thailand, Macau, Indonesia and Hong Kong. Angkana Netvriseth, Thailand, and Kim Eun Jung, Korea, were distant second and third with 106 points each.

Due to their first and second place finish in Hong Kong, Xu and Chen made the cut to the top 16 for the Tournament of Champions in 10th and 13th place, respectively. Men's winner Ramadona was tied for the 16th and last spot to advance with Thailand winner Apiwich Watanaphongsakorn and Indonesia champion Jason Belmonte (right), Australia, all 75 points.

The tie was broken by the average the players had on their way to the titles. Despite averaging 237.8 in Hong Kong, Ramadona had to settle for 17th as PBA champion Belmonte checked in with a 248.5 average in Indonesia to advance to the ToC. Apiwich landed in 18th place (216 average).
