    Usually, throwing a 300 game at your opponent in the

    title match is good enough for a win, and thats what hap-

    pened in Bangkok, Thailand on Friday, Sept. 30. But this

    title match involved two 300 games, and set the stage fora possible televised grudge match in Las Vegas in

    November.

    In Bangkok,

    two-time PBA

    Tour title win-

    ner Mike

    Fagan of

    P a t c h o g u e ,

    N.Y., started

    the champi-

    onship match

    of the PTT

    World Bowling

    Tour Thailand

    2011 event

    with a 300-211

    victory over topqualifier Jason

    Belmonte of

    Australia. But

    Fagan needed

    to beat

    Belmonte twice in the double-elimination finale, and it

    didnt happen. Belmonte returned the favor, defeating

    Fagan, 300-205, in the second game to win the title and

    one million Thai bhat (US$32,000-plus).

    With his win, Belmonte earned 50 points and moved

    past Finlands Osku Palermaa into third place on the WBT

    points list to set up the possibility of a showdown match

    with bottlegate rival Sean Rash of Montgomery, Ill., in

    the World Bowling Tour Finals presented by the PBA.

    Rash is second in WBT points heading into the Australian

    Masters, the final qualifying event in the series. Finlands

    Mika Koivuniemi has locked up the No. 1 berth in thethree-player stepladder finals, but if Rash and Belmonte

    remain one-two, they will meet in the first ESPN-televised

    match of the 2011-12 season.

    The mens and womens WBT Finals will be contested at

    South Point Hotel, Casino and Bowling Center in Las Vegas

    on specially-constructed arena lanes on Thursday, Nov. 17,

    and will air on ESPN on Sunday, Dec. 4, at 1 p.m. ET.

    The Thailand tournament was the next-to-last WBT

    qualifying event and featured a strong PBA Tour presencein addition to Fagan and Belmonte. In the opening three-

    player stepladder match, Ryan Ciminelli of Cheektowaga,

    N.Y., fired a 227 game to tie Thailands Peerawich

    Rungacharoen, and then eliminated the Thai bowler, 10-6,

    in the one-ball roll-off. Rash was eliminated in the open-

    ing match with a 214 game.

    In the second three-player showdown, Ciminellis 278

    overpowered Sayed Al Hashemi of UAE (245) and Choi

    Won Young of Korea (238). Ciminelli then ousted Dan

    MacLelland of Saginaw, Mich., 280-258, before losing to

    Fagan in the semifinal match, 234-214.

    T h e

    A u s t r a l i a n

    Masters is set

    for Oct. 10-22

    in Sydney. The

    A u s t r a l i a nMasters will

    determine the

    top three men

    and top three

    women in WBT

    points who will

    advance to the

    ESPN finals at

    South Point. In

    each division,

    bowlers will

    compete for

    prizes of

    $10,000, $6,000

    and $4,000 for first, second and third places, respectively.

    Koivuniemi and Carolyn Dorin-Ballard have locked up

    mens and womens WBT Finals berths going into theAustralian Masters. Rash is second, Belmonte third,

    Palermaa fourth and Chris Barnes fifth in the mens stand-

    ings. Swedens Nina Flack is second on the womens list

    ahead of PBA Tour exempt player Kelly Kulick and

    Finlands Krista Pollanen.

    ARLINGTON, Texas - The 2015

    United States Bowling Congress

    Open Championships is headed to

    El Paso, Texas, marking the first

    time in a decade the tournament

    will travel to a brand new host city.

    The 2015 event will be the 112th

    edition of the USBC Open

    Championships, which has beenheld in 48 cities in 26 states since

    its inception in 1901. The last time

    the tournament ventured to a new

    city was 2005, when it was held in

    Baton Rouge, La., also its first visit

    to Louisiana.

    Surveys show that many Open

    Championships bowlers like to see

    new cities, and the 2005 event fea-

    tured a sellout field of 13,222 five-

    player teams.

    "The city of El Paso really rolled

    out the red carpet for the bowlers

    and staff during the Women's

    Championships in 2010, and we'reexcited about being able to return

    with the Open Championships in

    2015," said USBC Executive

    Director Stu Upson. "The event

    has been to many different places

    over the years, and it will be great

    to add another amazing city to the

    list."

    After a successful 2010 USBC

    Women's Championships at the El

    Paso Convention and Performing

    Arts Center, the city of El Paso

    made a strong proposal to hold the

    2015 Open Championships in the

    same venue. The offer was accept-ed with the full support of the

    USBC Board of Directors.

    "The venue in El Paso played a

    huge role in the history of the

    Women's Championships as the

    event's first convention-center

    build," said Brian Lewis, USBC's

    Managing Director of

    Tournaments. "Along with the

    Intercollegiate Team

    Championships, Queens and other

    events, our previous stay in El

    Paso couldn't have been any

    smoother, and we know our return

    to El Paso will be another suc-cess."

    "Hosting the 2010 Women's

    Championships was a very special

    and rewarding opportunity for El

    Paso, and we look forward to

    showing the Open Championships

    competitors what The Sun City has

    to offer," said Bill Blaziek, general

    manager of the El Paso

    Convention and Visitors Bureau.

    "We learned a lot last year, and we

    hope to make USBC's next visit

    even more memorable."

    to join the Tour in 2012," World Tenpin Bowling Association

    President Kevin Dornberger said. "The Bahamas are not only a beau-

    tiful place to visit, but it's a country with very passionate bowlers

    who look forward to hosting a WTBA event for the first time."

    PBA DOUBLES CHAMPIONSHIP

    NAMED IN HONOR OF MARK ROTH,

    MARSHALL HOLMANBy Bill Vint - PBA

    The 2011 revival of the PBA Doubles Championship will be named

    in honor of two PBA Tour legends Mark Roth and Marshall

    Holman - who stamped their names all over the doubles competition

    back in its formation days.

    Roth and Holman teamed up to win PBA Doubles Classic titles in

    1977 and 1979 in San Jose, Calif., and again in 1984 after the event

    moved to Showboat Lanes in Las Vegas. The PBA Hall of Fame leg-

    ends, who own a combined total of 56 PBA Tour titles, bowled as

    doubles partners 13 times, cashing 11 times, making match play 10times and finishing in the top five six times.

    "How could you not want your Hall Of Fame doubles partner and

    great friend to share the name of this event with you? It's perfect,

    Roth said. I asked Marshal to bowl with me in our first doubles

    tournament because he was a tough cookie and he knew how to win.

    We won three times together during our career. Marshall and I talk

    frequently, and sharing memories of those events is something we

    often talk about. Its a great honor for both of us.

    Im absolutely honored, Holman added. Its a beautiful thing.

    The revival of the Mark Roth/Marshall Holman PBA Doubles

    Championship will be a part of the 2011 PBA World Series of

    Bowling at South Point Casino, Hotel and Bowling Center in Las

    Vegas Nov. 4-20.

    The doubles event will include the top 16 players after qualifying

    rounds in the PBA Exempt Players Championships who will be

    paired for an eight-team Baker format finale based upon how they

    qualify. The top qualifier will be the first to select a partner fromamong the remaining 15 players. If he/she selects the No. 11 seed,

    the No. 2 qualifier will pick next. If No. 1 picks No. 2 as a partner,

    the No. 3 qualifier will be the next to select, etc. The Baker format

    finals will be conducted on specially-constructed lanes in the South

    Point Arena on Sunday, Nov. 20.

    NATHAN BOHR REPLACES STEVEN BLACK

    AS PBA EXEMPT TOUR PLAYERFor the second season in a row, Nathan Bohr of Wichita, Kan., has moved

    into the ranks of PBA Tour exempt players, this time due to the withdrawal

    of Steven Black of Huntington Beach, Calif. Black, who qualified for his first

    PBA Tour exemption through the 2010 PBA Regional Players Invitational,

    requested and has been granted a deferral until the 2012-13 season.

    Bohr, 31, is a former Team USA member, Wichita State University bowl-

    ing star and winner of USBCs 1999 Chuck Hall Star of Tomorrow award.

    The 10-time PBA Regional title winner was the next player in line on the

    2010-11 competition points list. For the 2010-11 season, Bohr replaced Steve

    Harman of Indianapolis in the exempt player ranks after Harman resigned his

    exemption.

    STRONG PBA CONTINGENT COMPETING FOR

    WORLD BOWLING TOUR IN THAILANDAfter a strong showing in the DSD Samho Korea Cup International Open

    in Busan, Korea, last week led by PBA Tour star Tommy Jones emotion-

    al victory over top qualifier Parker Bohn III - many of the PBA Tour stars

    traveled to Bangkok where they are competing in this weeks PTT World

    Bowling Tour Thailand 2011 event.

    The Thailand event, which ends Friday, is the next-to-last qualifying tour-

    nament in the 2011 World Bowling Tour series. The final qualifier is the

    Australian Masters Oct. 10-22 in Sydney. At the conclusion of the Australian

    Masters, the top three men and top three women in WBT points will advance

    to the World Bowling Tour Finals presented by the PBA which will be con-

    tested at South Point in Las Vegas on Nov. 17 for delayed telecast on ESPN

    on Sunday, Dec. 4.

    Heading into the Thailand tournament, reigning PBA Player of the Year

    Mika Koivuniemi of Hartland, Mich., was the runaway WBT mens points

    leader followed by Sean Rash, Osku Palermaa and Chris Barnes. Womensleaders were Carolyn Dorin-Ballard, Kelly Kulick and Swedens Nina Flack.

    PBA Tour players who bowled in Korea were Jones, Bohn, Rash,

    Koivuniemi, Barnes, Rhino Page, Mike Fagan, Jason Belmonte, Wes Malott,

    Pete Weber, Norm Duke and Dan MacLelland. PBA Tour players bowling in

    Thailand include Koivuniemi, Belmonte, Fagan, MacLelland, Rash, Jones,

    Bohn, Duke, Page and Ryan Ciminelli.

    REMO PICCHIETTI DIEDRemo Picchietti, a USBC Hall of Famer and one of the worlds leading

    authorities on bowling lane maintenance, died on Sept. 26 after a lengthy ill-

    ness. He was 81. The former mayor of Bannockburn, Ill., was chairman of

    the board and president of DBA Products Co. before it was sold to

    Brunswick.

    Picchietti never intended to play a prominent part in bowling. As a law

    school graduate, he planned for a future in law and politics, but when his

    father died suddenly in 1959, Picchietti took the helm of the family business

    founded as Deerfield Bowling Academy in the early 1940s - and never

    looked back. DBA researched, developed and sold every imaginable lane

    maintenance product, and Picchietti became a leading authority on the sub-

    ject, traveling the world to teach proprietors and coaches the intricacies of

    lane maintenance.

    Picchietti also volunteered his services to the sport in a variety of roles: as

    president of the National Bowling Council, Billiard & Bowling Institute of

    America, National Association of Independent Resurfacers, Tech-Ed

    Publishing Company and the International Bowling Museum and Hall of

    STERN NIXES A WORLD SERIES RETURN TRIP

    FOR SCOTT THE ENGINEERScott "The Engineer" Salem of the Howard Stern Show on SiriusXM radio

    will not get the chance to better his 2010 PBA World Series of Bowling per-

    formance. Salems request for time off to return to the WSOB was turneddown on the radio show this week.

    games in five days and finished in 222nd place short of his goal of finish-

    ing in the top 200 but he recorded his best round in his final round, finish-

    ing 2nd on the Shark lane condition.

    Danny BivinCarries Mangos

    By Vince Albrecht

    NORTH ARLINGTON, NJ

    Young Danny Bivin continued his

    surge of late, carrying the front-

    running Flaming Mangos to a

    sweep of Disastrous Poultry, 930-

    886. Poultrys 14-year-old Sam

    Passaro kept his team competitive

    in the opener with an above aver-

    age score, but they fell eleven pins

    short. The third game was also a

    nail-biter with the Mangos pre-

    vailing by a scant seven sticks.

    Other action saw Kurgan Bergen

    sputter their way to five of seven points against the second-place

    Razzle Dazzlerz, Pacing the vic-

    tors was 13-year-old Alec

    Gruttadauria with an above-mark

    threesome of 418. With three

    weeks remaining, the Flaming

    Mangos have opened up a ten and

    one-half point lead and could

    clinch the title next week.
