Do they bowl on the same patterns as the PBA guys?

During qualifying, if I am not mistaken, they are mixed in with the guys on the same lanes..  and they bowl their finals match on the same tv pair just after the second semi final match...  so, not only the same pattern, but the same lanes as well..

Ummm, it was Tish Johnson, not Liz Johnson on the show today.  I know it's confusing, but you can tell them apart because Tish has shorter hair.

Believe me you don't want to have to bowl against Tish in a tournament.  She's well seasoned and game smart.  

As for the remarks, they say the same things about the men when they are not picture perfect physical specimens.  How many guys on the tour at are 45 like Tish are in perfect physical condition?  Maybe only Walter Ray.  Anyone that makes remarks like that, really doesn't know what they are talking about.  Do you really think there are no gay male bowlers in the PBA? Not that names are coming right to mind, but what does it matter anyway?

If the women are to be judged on their appearance rather than bowling skill, then the same should apply to the men.  Rather than run a tour qualifyer to come up with the exempt players maybe we need to hold a beauty pageant, men and women.  The tour can then always have good looking people bowling in the finals.  Just the boost bowling needs to get it back on track right?

As for Tish, I have had the pleasure of crossing with her in league when she was in SoCal and drawing her for WWPB ProAms.  She is a class act, excellent bowler and one of the nicest people I have met.

I, for one, don't give a rip about how Tish Johnson looks. She's one of just a few of the females I'd pay good money to see, and I'd rather watch her bowl over about half the exempt men's field, at least.

In addition to having great talent, she's an entertainer. She has great on-lane persona. She seems to love interacting with the fans. There's no doubt she loves the sport dearly.

And I would kill to be able to release the ball like she does. She's the Pete Weber of the women's tour in that regard.

When she finally retires, it will be a very sad day for the sport.

I know both of the girls on the telecast personally. I don't care what you say about them and their appearances!! I would love to see anyone on these boards shoe up and bowl against them! Then when and IF you were to beat them, you can say something about them! These 2 girls are some of the best in the business when it comes to womens bowling!

They did have a beauty/bowling contest for women in a mall in Las Vegas.
They left out Wendy Macpherson.  What a disaster!!

I hope you mean the names are confusing because you'd have to be blind to not be able to tell them apart by looks.


Whoosh!
