Ronnie Turner

Precision Sports

Ronald H. Turner was a Rhodesian international lawn bowler who was born in 1911; his date of death is unknown. He is recorded as winning three bronze medals in the fours competition at three consecutive Commonwealth Games, which were then known as the British Empire and Commonwealth Games. The medals came at the 1954 Games in Vancouver, the 1958 Games in Cardiff and the 1962 Games in Perth. A bowler who reached the podium in the same event at three successive Games was a consistent performer for Rhodesia in the fours over a span of eight years, although the available article gives no further detail about his club career or other titles.
