Kuala Lumpur: National lawn bowls champion Nor Farah Ain Abdullah has made Malaysia proud by creating history after moving up the ranks to become the world’s number one player when the ranking was released today.

Based on the https://worldbowlsseries.com/female-rankings/, women’s world ranking update, Nor Farah is at the top of the ranking with 723 points, well ahead of Scotland’s Julie Forest in second place with 683 points while Australia’s Kelsey Cottrell is third with 676 points.
