Here’s a look at some of the storylines for the 2020
PBA Tournament of Champions:
TOC stepladder finals will be televised live on FOX: The
first major championship of the 2020 Go Bowling PBA
Tour season will culminate with a live FOX stepladder
finals telecast on Sunday, Feb. 9 at 5 p.m. ET.
Winner will earn $100,000: The Tournament of
Champions is one of three events this season that will offer
the winner a $100,000 first prize. The others offering a
$100,000 first prize this season are the PBA World
Championship and PBA Playoffs.
$1 million 300 game bonus: While Tommy Jones received
a $10,000 bonus for his historic 300 game in the champi-
onship match of the season-opening PBA Hall of Fame
Classic, the bonus increases to $1 million, courtesty of
FOX, if a player can accomplish the same feat in the cham-
pionship match of the PBA Tournament of Champions,
PBA Players Championship, Go Bowling Indianapolis
Open or PBA World Championship.
“Go Bowling Free America” promotion: The “Go
Bowling Free America” promotion once again rewards
PBA fans, league and casual bowlers across America who
pre-register on GoBowling.com with a free game offer if
any player bowls a perfect game during any FOX or FS1
nationally-televised PBA Tour finals during the 2020 Go
Bowling PBA Tour season.
TOC is a tournament for champions only: The 2020
Tournament of Champions will include an exclusive field of
PBA champions. In order to be eligible, a player must be a
PBA member who has won a PBA Tour, PBA Regional,
PBA50 Tour, PBA50 Regional, or PBA Women’s Series
title.
Five-time PBA Player of the Year Jason Belmonte will try
again for additional milestones: Jason Belmonte, the
Australian two-hander and defending TOC champion, will
Jason Continued from Page 1
set his sights on a record fourth TOC title in 2020. He is cur-
rently tied with three-time TOC winners Mike Durbin and
Jason Couch, both PBA Hall of Famers. With another TOC
title, the 36-year-old Belmonte also would improve upon
his current record total of 11 major titles.
Other two-handers in the field: While Jason Belmonte
brought the two-handed delivery to prominence in his rook-
ie season in 2009, among the other players using the two-
handed technique in the field will be: 2016 TOC champion
Jesper Svensson of Sweden; five-time tour winner Osku
Palermaa of Finland; seven-time tour champion Anthony
Simonsen, Little Elm, Texas; three-time tour winner Kyle
Troup, Taylorsville, North Carolina, and one-time PBA
Tour winner Matt Ogle of Louisville, Kentucky.
PBA Hall of Famer Pete Weber tries for 11th major: While
Jason Belmonte has garnered most of the attention regard-
ing PBA major milestones in recent seasons, PBA Hall of
Famer Pete Weber will also have an opportunity to win his
11th career major to regain a tie with Belmonte for the all-
time majors record. Weber won his 10th major in the 2013
TOC to tie Earl Anthony for most PBA major titles at that
time. In doing so, Weber became the only player to win
PBA’s Triple Crown (Tournament of Champions, U.S.
Open and World Championship) twice and, at age 50, he
became the oldest player to win a PBA major. Now 56,
Weber, a 37-time tour winner, would also join Belmonte,
Mike Durbin and Jason Couch as three-time TOC titlists
with a win.
TOC past winners entered: Past TOC champions entered
include EJ Tackett (2017), Jesper Svensson (2016), Jason
Belmonte (2014, 2015, 2019), Matt O’Grady (2018), Sean
Rash (2012), and PBA Hall of Famers Pete Weber (1987,
2013), Norm Duke (1994), Chris Barnes (2006) and
Tommy Jones (2007).
Walter Ray Williams Jr. still trying for a TOC title: Hall of
Famer Walter Ray Williams Jr. has accomplished nearly
everything there is to accomplish in PBA competition
except winning the Tournament of Champions. A TOC title
would make the all-time titles leader (47) the seventh play-
er to complete the PBA Triple Crown (titles in the U.S.
Open, PBA World Championship and TOC), and the third
player in history to complete the PBA “Grand Slam” (titles
in the U.S. Open, PBA World Championship, TOC and
USBC Masters). Mike Aulby and Norm Duke are the only
players who have completed the Grand Slam.
Bowling legend Carmen Salvino to compete: The ageless
bowling legend Carmen Salvino will compete in his 30th
Tournament of Champions at age 86. The 17-time PBA
Tour winner, who is the oldest to compete in a PBA Tour
event, has a best finish of third which he accomplished in
the very first TOC in 1962.
International field: Eight countries are represented in the
TOC field – Australia, Canada, Colombia, Denmark,
England, Finland, Sweden and the U.S.
TOC first of three consecutive majors: The Tournament
of Champions will be the first of three consecutive PBA
Tour majors. Following the TOC will be the PBA Players

Championship at Wayne Webb’s Columbus Bowl (Feb. 9-

TOC began in Indianapolis in 1962: Joe Joseph won the
inaugural TOC at Play Bowl in Indianapolis with a two-
game 480 pinfall total in 1962. Billy Golembiewski was
second with 416 pins and Hall of Famer Carmen Salvino
finished third with 409 in the two-game total pinfall cham-
pionship round.

BERGEN TECH GIRLS DETHRONE WAYNE HILLS BOYS IN 2ND ANNUAL WINTER BREAK-ER BAKER FORMAT TOURNAMENT
by Vince Albrecht
Montvale, NJ– Westwood H.S. Bowling Coach Dan
Rattacasa had some ideas last season for a Christmas Break
Baker Format Tournament. He arranged to get Montvale
Lanes to house the event and fifteen entries were enough to
get the unique tournament off the ground. There was enough
positive response that Coach Rattacasa decided to try it again
this past Friday at Montvale Lanes which was offering him
twenty-four lanes and he came close to filling that number, fif-
teen schools covering twenty-two entries. Unlike most other
tournaments, Dan opted for a total Baker Format approach.
For those unfamiliar with Baker, each game is rolled by five
SPORTS REPORTER
players of a team, two frames each; bowler one rolls frames
one and six, bowler two frames two and seven, etc. To render
it more interesting, he provided two alternative approaches to
the traditional Baker game; “Shot for Shot” where the leadoff
bowler and the second person in the lineup either shoots at the
spare or a fresh frame, if the leadoff bowler rolled a strike; the
other innovation was “Till You Miss”: should the leadoff play-
er roll a strike, he continues to roll until he fails, at which point
the next bowler tries to convert the spare and if so, delivers the
next frame and should he strike, he keeps on going until he
misses. There were boys, girls and co-ed teams, but all were
after first place since there was no separation of divisions. The
5
entries rolled seven games, some traditionally, the others the
alternative formats. All twenty-two squads made the brackets
[one game, except the championship contest three games]
since the first round was simply to determine ranking by
score. Coach Rattacasa provided byes for the ten highest pin
totals while the other twelve engaged in a single elimination
Baker game. The six winners joined those with the byes for
the second bracket and the eight victors advanced to the quar-
ter-finals, etc. A clever concept for a tournament, less time
consumed than a standard three-game set which uses one hun-
dred fifty frames compared to seventy for the preliminary
seven-game round.
