Title: Looking at the scores from the US Open...
Post by: Hamburglar on February 04, 2004, 12:27:47 AM
1360 through 12 games...113 average???  I know conditions are difficult but that is staggering!!!  Can anybody tell me what the deal is in this case??

I'm not sure but I believe that is the wheelchair bowler that bowled at the Masters as well. If they are dry then he would have a lot of problems with ball speed.

Pinbuster,
I sure hope that's the case (wheelchair bowler) but if not, ouch!

Could he have withdrawn and they just forgot to say so?

Actually, a guy shot that for five games, decided the shot was too easy and packed up and went home and they forgot to post that he withdrew from competition.

Thanks for confirming that Bob!  The guy has my respect for being out there with the best in the world in spite of his disability!

Thats cool that a guy in a wheelchair is out there participating, shows courage, and all. But I just dont think it is right. Because I know it has to be upsetting other bowlers, cause that would definitely take them off their pace. But whatever. I think I heard of that Walter Roy guy though. Was he one of the bowlers on that one telecast of the PWBA and wheelchair tournament?
