Phew....it was a really long day with a 1 hour delay due to lane breakdowns and lane shutoffs but it was satisfying nonetheless.

The day kicked off with the open category playing their 1st round of 8 games. Kevin Tan of Melaka was on FIRE!!! His first game of 258 was already very high but in the 2nd he nearly scored a PERFECT GAME! He had a 9 spare in the first frame and just continued striking till the 10th frame...a score of 290!! From then onwards...he just lead all the way till the 8th game. Later that day, the he returned to the lanes to complete his 2nd round of 6 games and continued to lead eventhough his performance lacked slightly. In second position was Muhd Saman from Pahang. He too maintained his position from Round 1. He will be meeting his team mate, Muhd Hanif in the Knock-Out Round tomorrow.

In the Girls Open Category, Nadya Izzati from Selangor also successfully maintained her lead from Round 1 going into the Knock-Out Round. She will be meeting Nur Diana Hussin from Kuala Lumpur in the Quarter Finals.

It was the same scenario in the Boys Graded where Zawir Aiman managed to also maintain the pole position pipping his team mate Mohd Zafiq Syaddiq by 2 pins.

The Girls Graded category however produced a different story. Norsyazana Rosli who was 3rd in the 1st Round secured the top position with a 196 in her 14th game. Round 1 leader Noramirah from Johor is in 2nd position.
