Canadian Lawn Bowls Champion Ryan Bester Leads Team at Commonwealth Games
Ryan Bester, a legendary figure in the sport of lawn bowls, is preparing for a major milestone in his career. The world champion has been selected to serve as Canada's baton-bearer at the upcoming Commonwealth Games. This event marks his seventh appearance at the prestigious international competition.
Bester has long been a dominant force in the sport. In 2023, he secured a significant victory against Ireland’s Gary Kelly to claim the world championship title.
