With the victory, Lalisang (pictured left with the trophy), who has also won the titles in Kuwait in March and Indonesia in October, concluded the season as the Tour’s point ranking winner and will lead the top 16 men into the 2016 ABF Tour Tournament of Champions.

Lalisang, who finished third in the 9th Kingdom International Open which served as qualifying event, improved every round of the single-elimination finals.

The 2015 Asian Bowling Federation (ABF) Tour consisted of 9 legs, five in the Near East (Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Egypt and Saudi Arabia) with a men’s division only and four in East and South East Asia (Thailand, Hong Kong, Macau and Indonesia) featuring men and women in separate divisions.

Players earned ranking points based on how they finish in each event. The top 16 men and the top 16 women in the point rankings qualified for the ABF Tour Tournament of Champions scheduled for March 13-14, 2016 in Kuwait.
