I think Ciminelli was the 16th qualifier, made the cut over PDW by less than 10 pins.  I can't remember off the top of my head about Woods or TD.  Pretty sure Barnes made the cut.

Check out the amateur, though.  Three ties.  How hard is that?

It almost looks unfair from the records starting with TD. TD had the same record as CB but did not made the cut but CB did. Yes, the rest made the cut.

TD has a better record then the rest but does not make it. That is bowling.

The reason you can have a better record and not make the cut is the round-robin format...which, you might be surprised to know, is the BETTER FORMAT!

Why, you ask?

Well, it has to do with taking into account the whole tournament picture. Unlike match-play -- where the fate of the tournament is decided in a highly magnified time-frame -- round-robin rewards the true "best" of the tournament.

Just my .02.

With RR, you're bowling against the whole field every game, really.  Everyone's scores affect your position.  With match play, only your scores and your opponent's scores matter.  You only really have to beat three people (plus the other 32 that didn't make the cut) to make the show.  In a RR tournament, you gotta beat a lot more people.
