  "account": "KUALA LUMPUR: Tun Ameerul Luqman Al-Hakim, the national bowler, narrowly secured the silver medal in the Asian tenpin bowling championships in Doha, Qatar, falling just seven pins short of the gold. Tun Hakim, 27, achieved a score of 1,383 pins over six games, placing him behind gold medallist Abdulrazzaq Mohammad of Kuwait with 1,390 pins. Hong Kong’s Michael Mak Cheuk Yin claimed the bronze with 1,381 pins. After leading after the fourth game, Tun Hakim experienced a significant drop in his fifth game, scoring only 165 pins – his lowest of the competition. He managed to mount a strong comeback in the final game, scoring 248 pins. However, Abdulrazzaq Mohammad’s total of 249 pins proved to be the deciding factor, securing the title by a margin of seven pins. Three other Malaysians followed, with Muhammad Rafiq Ismail finishing sixth with 1,377 pins, Muhd Hazim Alihanafiah seventh with 1,367 pins, and Izz Naqiuddin Putera Islahuddin 13th with 1,331 pins. Tun Hakim’s silver medal victory occurred a day after national bowler Gillian Lim won the women’s singles title.",
