Iliya beat Daphne 248-192 pinfalls in the step-ladder match to join Japan's Ishimoto Mirai in the step-ladder final.

But Iliya had to settle for the silver after losing 236-242 to Mirai.

The boys' Masters title also went to a Japanese, Nakano Katsuhito, who edged out Australia's Adam Svensson by a single pinfall, 268-267.
