England’s Dom Barrett Tops PBA Scorpion Open Qualifying; Rash Leads World Championship Qualifying Heading into GEICO Shark Open

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

(Source: Professional Bowlers Association)

LAS VEGAS  – International players continued to make an impact at the World Series of Bowling as Dom Barrett of England earned top-qualifier honors in the PBA Scorpion Open Monday at the South Point Bowling Center.

Barrett bowled a 3,264 14-game pinfall total (233.1 average) with the help of a 1,453 six-game block on games of 248, 277, 210, 241, 178 and 299 in the final round.

Barrett will be joined by PBA Tour titlist Dave Wodka of Henderson, Nev., four-time Tour titlist Sean Rash of Montgomery, Ill., and 13-time Tour winner Patrick Allen of Baltimore in the Scorpion Open ESPN Eliiminator finals which will be taped at 6 p.m. PT on Nov. 18.

Barrett, who currently ranks fifth on the European Bowling Tour points list, won his first PBA title in a regional tournament in Reno last weekend on his way to the World Series.

“I came here to win one of these tournaments,” Barrett said. “Winning the regional gave me a lot of confidence. This is going to be my first (PBA) show and I couldn’t be happier.

“The key to my success so far has been taking advantage of every minute of practice time I’ve had since I’ve been here to work on everything from making adjustments to selecting the right ball.”

Rash earned his third straight television final, and fortified his lead after 24 games of PBA World Championship qualifying.

Rash, who has already qualified for the ESPN televised finals of the Bayer Viper Open and Chameleon Open, had a 1,870 eight-game pinfall total in the morning qualifying round.

“Having already made two TV shows helps loosen up your arm swing,” he added. “I’ve bowled well in all three World Series events and the All-In Showdown. All you ever want to do is give yourself a chance to win. If you give yourself enough chances, you’ll win and that’s what I’m trying to do.”

With the conclusion of Monday’s eight-game Scorpion qualifying round, the fourth and final animal pattern is tomorrow’s GEICO Shark Open. After the Shark round, the top 53 players based on 32 games will advance to Wednesday’s eight-game PBA World Championship cashers round. After a total of 40 games, the top 16 players will advance to the ESPN-televised elimination finals in the first PBA major championship of the season.

Rash Retains Scorpion Open Qualifying Lead; Leads World Championship Qualifying

Monday, November 7th, 2011

(Source: Professional Bowlers Association)

LAS VEGAS – Four-time PBA Tour champion Sean Rash averaged 233.75 for his first eight qualifying games Monday in the Scorpion Open to ensure himself a shot at a third straight television final, and he fortified his lead after 24 games of PBA World Championship qualifying.

Rash, who has already qualified for the ESPN televised finals of the Bayer Viper Open and Chameleon Open, had a 1,870 eight-game pinfall total with games of 233, 220, 246, 253, 255, 207 and 209.

“I feel good. I’ve been bowling overseas and have been very close to winning,” Rash said. “I have some great guys from Brunswick behind me, giving me great advice. If I make a mistake, they make sure I don’t do it a second time.

“Having already made two TV shows helps loosen up your arm swing,” he added. “I’ve bowled well in all three World Series events and the All-In Showdown. All you ever want to do is give yourself a chance to win. If you give yourself enough chances, you’ll win and that’s what I’m trying to do.”

With the conclusion of Monday’s eight-game Scorpion qualifying round, the fourth and final animal pattern in tomorrow’s GEICO Shark Open will determine the top 53 players who will advance to Wednesday’s eight-game PBA World Championship cashers round. After a total of 40 games, the top 16 players will advance to the elimination finals in the first PBA major championship of the season.

The top 16 after Monday’s qualifying round bowl another six-game round Monday evening to determine the top four for the Scorpion Open TV finals at 6 p.m. PT on Nov. 18.

Rash Eyes Third Straight WSOB TV Final; Leads after First Squad in Scorpion Open

Monday, November 7th, 2011

(Source: Professional Bowlers Association)

Four-time PBA Tour champion Sean Rash averaged 233.75 for his first eight qualifying games Monday morning in the Scorpion Open to ensure himself a shot at a third straight television final, and he fortified his lead after 24 games of PBA World Championship qualifying.

Rash, who has already qualified for the ESPN televised finals of the Bayer Viper Open and Chameleon Open, had a 1,870 eight-game pinfall total with games of 233, 220, 246, 253, 255, 207 and 209.

“I feel good. I’ve been bowling overseas and have been very close to winning,” Rash said. “I have some great guys from Brunswick behind me, giving me great advice. If I make a mistake, they make sure I don’t do it a second time.

“Having already made two TV shows helps loosen up your arm swing,” he added. “I’ve bowled well in all three World Series events and the All-In Showdown. All you ever want to do is give yourself a chance to win. If you give yourself enough chances, you’ll win and that’s what I’m trying to do.”

Six players from the country of Bahrain, competing in their first World Series and are getting the competitive bowling experience of a lifetime.

34-year-old Fawaz Abdullah is in contention to advance to tonight’s final Round of 16 by finishing eighth after the first block with a 1,797 eight-game pinfall that included games of 175, 193, 215, 222, 237, 240 and 300. He rolled 20 straight strikes in the last two games.

The Bahrainian contingent is coached by former Tour player and three-time World Bowler of the Year Tim Mack.

“I always have problems getting started,” Abdullah said. “But I’m gaining a lot of confidence as the tournament progresses. With Tim’s help I’m getting better with making adjustments and making the right ball changes.

“You can see their confidence level growing exponentially,” Mack said of the Bahrainian players. “They have the ability—all they’re lacking is experience and that’s what they’re getting here.”

B squad bowls its eight-game block this afternoon after which the field will be but to 16 players who will advance to a final six-game round to determine the four television finalists for the Scorpion Open.

After the conclusion of yesterday’s Chameleon Open Rash led qualifiers for the PBA World Championship which will ultimately take the top 16 players to the elimination finals at the conclusion of the animal pattern events.

SCOTT THE ENGINEER: So Far So Good

Monday, November 7th, 2011

(Source: Professional Bowlers Association)

Scott the Engineer of The Howard Stern Show bowled in the WSOB last year at South Point. This year he wasn’t able to bowl, but he is watching on Xtra Frame and doing a blog throughout.

After the first two rounds of the PBA World Championship some interesting stories are developing. I think the first one is that six different countries are represented in the top ten which gives the word “world” true meaning. I have always thought American bowlers to be the best in the world, I know there have been international players on the tour for many years, but I think the overall level of competition at the WSOB from the international players is now equal to the Americans.

The next story I like is the upcoming final of the Chameleon Open. I’m sure everyone remembers “bottlegate”. How exciting will it be if we see Jason Belmonte and Sean Rash matched up in the final. This has the makings to be one of the best matches in a long time. I think I’ll look through my sound effects library and see what I can come up with to help these guys. Stay tuned.

And finally, can anyone stop Sean Rash? The term “In The Zone” describes where Sean’s game is right now. He was within a solid 9 pin from winning the All-in Showdown, he’s in the final 4 for the Viper and Chameleon Opens, and he’s leading the World Championship with a 245 average. I was able to get to know Sean pretty well from the time I spent at the WSOB last year – he spent time giving me recommendations on how to improve my game – something he didn’t have to do that I appreciated very much. I think everyone knows the amount of talent Sean has, and he certainly brings an intensity we haven’t seen in a long time, but now he’s stepped up his game to an amazing level – maybe it’s the new Brunswick gear he’s using! I know I’ll be watching him the rest of the way, I hope you do to.

Belmonte Retains Lead After First Two Squads of PBA Chameleon Open

Monday, November 7th, 2011

(Source: Professional Bowlers Association)

 

PBA Tour titlist and two-hander Jason Belmonte of Australia maintained his lead after the first two rounds of the PBA Chameleon Open Sunday at South Point Bowling Center.

The field has been cut to the top 16 for the final qualifying round this evening to determine the four players who will advance to the TV finals.

Belmonte fired a 1,963 eight game pinfall (245.3 average) with games of 279, 258, 211, 279, 241, 218, 177 and 300 in Sunday’s opening eight-game block.

Belmonte, the winner of the 2009 Bowling Foundation Long Island Open, rebounded after a disappointing 75th-place finish in Saturday’s Bayer Viper Open.

“I was bowling scared yesterday like I was afraid to make errors which caused more errors,” said Belmonte. “I was too cautious and I had to make sure to come out more aggressive today.

“It’s a new day and generally I had more confidence. Anytime I got into a lull or I was cruising I just kept reminding myself not to bowl scared—just grab the ball and get it.”

Belmonte’s 300 game to end the round vaulted him around Patrick Gerard of Canada who finished the squad in second with 1,938 and also bowled a 300 game.

Belmonte was able to withstand a challenge for the top spot by four-time PBA Tour champion Sean Rash who bowled a 1,955 pinfall to move into second.

In general, international players made an impact after the first squad with a total of five countries represented in the top 16 which also included Patrick Girard of Canada in third; two-handed specialist and PBA Tour titlist Osku Palmeraa of Finland in a tie for ninth with Ildemaro Ruiz of Venezuela and Dennis Ecklund of Sweden in 15th.

Ruiz will be hoping to make his second television appearance having qualified for the TV finals in yesterday’s Bayer Viper Championship.

Kelly Kulick, the first and only woman to win a PBA Tour title by capturing the 2010 PBA Tournament of Champions made the cut to the final round by finishing 15th. She is hoping to rebound from a 2010-11 season in which her best finish was 15th.

Thomas Larsen of Denmark in a tie for 10th with Stuart Williams of England; Dan MacLelland of Canada in 13th, Martin Larsen of Sweden in 14th and Andres Gomez of Colombia in 15th.

Four 300 games have been shot in the tournament thus far by Belmonte, Girard, Eugene McCune and John Furey.

The PBA Chameleon Open is the second leg in the PBA World Championship. In addition to competing for a spot in the Chameleon Championship televised finals which will be taped by ESPN at 3 p.m. PT Nov. 18, all World Series of Bowling competitors will bowl two more eight-game qualifying rounds in the PBA’s Scorpion and Shark tournaments over the next two days to qualify for the PBA World Championship cashers round.

The top 16 players after 40 games will then advance to the World Championship ESPN-taped divisional finals scheduled for Nov. 19 starting at 10:30 a.m.
