    LAS VEGAS - Wayne

    Webb of Grove City,

    Ohio, went undefeated in

    seven matches as herolled to the title at the

    2010 United States

    Bowling Congress Senior

    Masters.

    Webb defeated reigning

    Professional Bowlers

    Association Player of the

    Year Walter Ray Williams

    Jr. of Ocala, Fla., 705-

    628, in the title match at

    the South Point Hotel and

    Casino Bowling Center.

    He took home $16,000

    for the victory.

    "I'm feeling great," said

    Webb, who had games of

    216, 289 and 200 againstWilliams. "I knew I had

    to bowl really good to

    beat Walter and fortunately for

    me, when I hit the pocket, I was

    striking. So that helps."

    The win gave Webb his third

    career Senior PBA Tour major

    title, having also won the Senior

    U.S. Open in 2008 and 2009. He

    also won the PBA Senior

    Columbus Open in April.

    "This means everything to me,

    just like winning the Senior U.S.

    Open," said Webb, who also has

    20 PBA national titles to his cred-

    it. "I hadn't won the U.S. Open on

    the national tour, but I'd come in

    second. I never won the Masters,

    but I had finished fourth. Now

    I've won all the majors on the

    Senior Tour, and it feels great."

    For Williams, the loss to

    Webb was the end of a

    long string of victories.

    Williams started the dou-ble-elimination match-play

    bracket with a first-round

    loss to Hugh Miller, but

    bounced back to win 10

    consecutive matches in the

    losers bracket. Williams

    reached the championship

    match by defeating top

    qualifier Peter Knopp of

    Bremen, Germany, 696-

    539.

    After leading the tourna-

    ment in qualifying, Knopp

    ended up third in the event.

    He dropped to the losers

    bracket with a 613-551

    loss to Webb after winningfive consecutive matches

    in the winners bracket.

    Kenny Parks of Hammond,

    Ind., the 2008 Senior Masters

    champion, finished fourth after

    losing to Williams, 679-634.

    The 2010 USBC Senior Masters

    attracted a field of 298 of the top

    professional and amateur bowlers

    ages 50 and older.

    2/8

    SEATTLE, Wash. As a competi-

    tor on the PBA Tour for more than a

    quarter century, Wayne Webb put

    together a Hall of Fame career cap-

    turing 20 titles including the

    Tournament of Champions and a

    Player of the Year crown. But two

    major titles the U.S. Open and

    United States Bowling Congress

    Masterseluded him.

    On June 18, in a marquee matchup

    of two PBA greats, Webb defeated

    reigning PBA Player of the Year

    Walter Ray Williams Jr., 705-628, in

    the title match to win the USBC

    Senior Masters at the South Point

    Hotel and Casino Bowling Center in

    Las Vegas.

    As the winner of the Senior U.S.

    Open in 2008 and 2009, Webbs

    Senior Masters win gave him his

    third career Senior Tour major title

    and both Senior Tour counterparts

    of the prestigious majors missing

    from his PBA Tour resume. Webb,

    the 1980 PBA Player of the Year and

    2008 Senior Tour Rookie of the

    Year, had best finishes in the U.S.

    Open and Masters on the national

    tour of second (1985) and fourth

    (1981), respectively.

    Ironically, in careers where both

    Webb and Williams competed on

    Tour at the same time for approxi-

    mately 20 years, their Senior

    Masters title match showdown

    marked the first time the two had

    ever met in a championship round.

    As it got down to the final match-

    es, I was kidding Walter about how

    tired he must be after all those

    matches in the losers bracket,

    Webb laughed. I said Id be happy

    to give him an early rest by handing

    him a loss in the first match of the

    final (which requires the losers

    bracket qualifier to win twice in the

    championship match for the title).

    Naturally, he said he would have no

    problem bowling two matches

    against me.

    If you lose early like (Walter

    Ray) did, its really an unbelievable

    effort in that double-elimination for-

    mat to get to the championship

    match. I could only hope that he

    would run out of gas.

    While Webb was cruising along in

    the winners bracket, winning six

    matches to get to the championship

    match, Williams bowled non-stop

    for two days in the losers bracket

    after an opening-round loss to Hugh

    Miller, winning 10 consecutive

    three-game matches. The lanes

    were harder for me on the last day

    and for several matches I was strug-

    gling to shoot 200, Webb said. I

    could see Walter coming and I knew

    if I was going to bowl against him I

    was going to get run over if I didnt

    turn it around.

    Even in the last game of the title

    match I was figuring if he threw 300

    at me I would still have to shoot 191

    to shut him out. He comes out with

    the first five strikes before he finally

    opens and Im thinking come on,

    cant you make it easy on me?

    Webb, who moved to the

    Columbus, Ohio area in early April

    to open Wayne Webbs Columbus

    Bowl, had planned to end his season

    after the Senior Tours two majors in

    Las Vegas to concentrate on his cen-

    ter operations. But after a win in the

    Senior Columbus Open, a runnerup

    finish in the season-opening Senior

    Dayton Classic and a ninth-place

    finish in the Senior U.S. Open, hes

    a leading contender for Senior

    Player of the Year honors. As a

    result, he is planning to adjust his

    schedule so he can compete in the

    last three events of the season.

    Williams who won the Senior

    Miller High Life Classic in his

    Senior Tour debut in May is also

    tentatively planning to compete in

    the remaining Senior Tour events

    which could turn into a shootout for

    Senior Player of the Year honors.

    Senior U.S. Open winner Mark

    Williams, reigning Senior Player of

    the Year Ron Mohr and Steve

    Ferraro are also in the mix but will

    need strong finishes.

    I have a great crew back at the

    center and a lot of support from my

    partner (Mike Irwin), Webb said.

    Well be spending the summer

    remodeling the whole center

    from lanes to scoring unitsbut I

    think well be at a place where I can

    be comfortable bowling the rest of

    the events. Plus, those tournaments

    wont be far from home.

    The final three 2010 Senior Tour

    events are: PBA Senior Lake

    County Indiana Open, Aug. 9-12;

    PBA Senior Pepsi Open, Decatur,

    Ill., Aug. 14-17 and PBA Senior

    Jackson Open, Jackson, Mich., Aug.

    21-24.

    Bowling still remains a strange

    sport when it comes to separat-

    ing the amateurs from the pros.

    Money doesn't decide because

    you can be an amateur and earn

    unlimited amounts and be a pro

    and not pocket a dime. The only

    strict divider is your member-

    ship in a professional group suchas the Professional Bowlers

    Association. There also is a

    Japanese pro organization.

    But that leaves the majority of

    more than 100 bowling countries

    in the world without pro affilia-

    tion, and in those nations there

    are many major tournaments

    paying $10,000 to $30,000. And

    many of the countries reward

    their so-called amateurs with

    goodies such as merchandise,

    lodging and even employment

    when they win the so-called

    amateur events conducted

    almost everywhere.

    Youngsters are also getting

    into the act as scholarship grants

    are awarded in many junior

    tournaments.

    Women, who lost their pro

    tour more than five years ago,

    now are welcome to join the PBA

    and United States Bowling

    Congress and roll in what was

    once an all male territory. And

    from the lowest ranks of bowlers

    to the highest, tournament direc-

    tors have made it easier to com-

    pete for one big reason---to gain

    as many entries as possible.

    Therefore you might see some

    pretty bad bowlers, talent wise,

    rolling in the U.S. Open or

    USBC Masters because they won

    a spot or have enough extra cash

    to pay the entry fee and expens-

    es. On the other side you see

    highly talented and high average

    bowlers rolling in tournaments

    geared to lower average bowlers.

    Handicap systems are used in

    many events, some of them offer-

    ing big money.

    Yet, the lure and much of thebig loot in the sport remains

    with the avowed pros, and more

    than 4,000 top bowlers in the

    world are PBA members.

    Though they don't rate with ath-

    letes in other sports when it

    comes to earnings, they do very

    well for a sport organization

    that didn't even exist a little

    more than 50 years ago.

    Walter Ray Williams Jr. is the

    career money leader with

    $4,096,396 going into the start of

    the 2009-10 season. He also had

    the best single year, with

    $419,700 in 2002-03. Pete Weber

    has won $3.4 million, and Norm

    Duke, Parker Bohn, Brian Voss,

    Amleto Monacelli and Mike

    Aulby are well above $2 million.

    That's strictly official win-

    nings, does not include special

    prizes, sponsor fees, incentive

    fees for wearing certain apparel

    and using designated equipment

    on TV, plus good fees for exhibi-

    tions and other appearances.

    Those who have found their

    niche in pro bowling can look

    forward to long careers, 20 to 30

    years, and those that don't make

    it, can enjoy the chase. But don't

    try to class bowlers on their rat-

    ings as amateurs or pros, but

    simply on their performances.

    4 SPORTS REPORTER June 30 - July 6, 2010

    It was a typical mid-May day in

    Arlington, Texas. The sun was

    bright, the air warm and the winds

    plentiful.

    There was a buzz at both ends of

    the International Bowling

    Campus. In front of the

    International Bowling Museum

    and Hall of Fame was a large

    white tent to honor four people

    who had achieved most of theirfame in the past. The International

    Training and Research Center was

    hosting its first live televised event

    featuring current stars.

    Most of the 200 or so people

    who attended both events likely

    didnt realize the days symbolism

    as they witnessed the start of a

    new tradition and at least the tem-

    porary end to an old one. The first

    outdoor ceremony for the United

    States Bowling Congress Hall of

    Fame would be held only yards

    away from what may have been

    the last U.S. Womens Open, also

    a USBC event.

    The formats of these 2010

    events were the brainchild of

    USBC Managing Director of

    Media Pete Tredwell. In the Hall

    of Fames case, the outdoor cere-

    mony differed largely from the

    indoor ceremonies previously held

    at the site of the USBC

    Convention.

    The outdoor ceremony was

    done to draw more public and

    media attention to the event and

    the IBMHF as well, Tredwell

    said. It was inspired by similar

    events that baseball and football

    do every summer.

    From an operational stand-

    point, the ceremony and events

    surrounding it went great. Media

    coverage was solid as well. The

    only thing that was even some-

    what disappointing was the atten-

    dance from a public standpoint.

    Taking part in the first such cer-

    emony were all-time greats

    Marshall Holman of Medford,

    Ore., and Kim Terrell-Kearney of

    Grand Prairie, Texas, for superior

    performance, senior star JohnHandegard of Spring, Texas, in the

    veterans category and off-lanes

    bowling official Betty Barnes of

    Reno, Nev., for meritorious serv-

    ice.

    "This is just a terrific complex

    we have here. It's come a long

    way," said master of ceremonies

    Nelson Burton Jr. "My first hall of

    fame ceremony was in 1964 when

    my father (Nelson Burton Sr.)

    went into the Hall of Fame in

    Oakland, Calif. I've been to many,

    many hall of fame presentations

    since then but this one outdoes all

    of them.

    "This beautiful outdoor venue is

    really a classy, classy thing and I

    think in the future we'll have big-

    ger and better things to come."

    Tredwell generally was pleased

    with how the inaugural outdoor

    event went and how it bodes for

    the future.

    The feedback I received was

    unanimously positive, he said.

    Its something to build on. We

    hope for something bigger and

    better in 2011.

    In 2011, the natural tie is to the

    USBC Convention and

    International Bowl Expo that will

    occur just up the road in

    Grapevine next June. There is a

    built-in bowling audience that will

    drive considerably more traffic to

    the event. We havent made any

    specific plans yet. I want to get a

    little more feedback on the

    specifics of how this year went,

    and also tie into the specific

    schedule of the Convention and

    Bowl Expo. Due to the warmer

    weather in late June, an outdoor

    ceremony would have to be in themorning. Ideally, Id like to hold

    the event on a weekend to draw

    more public interest.

    Tredwells other big project of

    the day, the U.S. Womens Open,

    also was quite a spectacle. It fea-

    tured arguably the strongest field

    ever assembled for a womans

    stepladder finals and the players

    didnt disappoint.

    USBC Hall of Famer Carolyn

    Dorin-Ballard started the live

    ESPN2 stepladder finals with a

    10-9 one-shot overtime win over

    fellow Dallas-Fort Worth resident

    and Team USA member Lynda

    Barnes of Double Oak after the

    two friends tied at 207. Dorin-

    Ballard next beat Colombian star

    and now Pfugerville, Texas, resi-

    dent Clara Guerrero 216-192.

    Dorin-Ballard then went up

    against the planets hottest player,

    Kelly Kulick of Union, N.J.

    Kulick won that match 201-176

    then completed her improbable

    2010 run by beating the worlds

    No. 2 best female, Liz Johnson of

    Cheektowaga, N.Y., 233-203.

    Kulick's year got off to a great

    start when she topped the world's

    best male competitors in winning

    the PBA Tournament of

    Champions in January. That made

    her the first woman to win a

    national event on what formerly

    was an all-male tour. In late April,

    she earned her third USBC

    Queens title in El Paso, Texas.

    And with her U.S. Womens Open

    victory two weeks later, she

    became the first woman to win the

    two major women's titles in the

    same year.

    "It's unimaginable. You couldn'twrite a script about this," Kulick

    said after collecting the $20,000

    top prize. "If it gets any better,

    what's next."

    For Kulick, what immediately

    came next was a series of trade

    shows for her bowling sponsors

    and a never-ending quest to put

    her now celebrity status to use for

    the industry.

    "I hope I can convince compa-

    nies outside of bowling to join

    with me and by doing so helping

    all the other bowlers," she said.

    After that, Kulick will compete

    on the PBA Tour in the fall.

    Unfortunately that likely will be

    all thats available for women until

    the 2011 USBC Queens as USBC

    is dropping its sponsorship of the

    PBA Womens Series and U.S.

    Womens Open.

    USBC has had to make many

    difficult decisions to re-focus our

    financial priorities, Tredwell

    said. Our membership decline

    has been consistent with projec-

    tions, but all of our tournament

    entries are down, and that hurts

    our bottom line. Having failed to

    generate sponsorship for the

    event, USBC is forced to add a

    significant amount of money to

    the prize fund, as well as pay for

    TV production. The event just

    wasnt financially feasible for

    2011, but we do hope it will return

    some time after that.

    As with so many things, it all

    boils down to money. In bowlings

    case, its sponsorship dollars that

    will determine the future of the

    sport for both women and men.

    Sponsorship is the key to mak-

    ing any sports property work, andwomens bowling is no excep-

    tion, Tredwell said. We are see-

    ing the PBA struggle with spon-

    sorship due to the economic con-

    ditions as well. The good news is

    that there are many key industry

    people that would like to see a

    womens tour again. Its just a

    matter of finding a business model

    that will work.

    Some of the women had unique

    ideas on what that business model

    could be.

    Win the mega millions, said

    Stefanie Nation. Or we need to

    go on Oprah (Winfrey) and plead

    our case.

    We need a really rich celebrity

    who loves the sport of bowling

    who wants to bankroll the tour,

    Johnson said. We need about $1

    million for a good year.

    We need sponsors outside the

    industry, said Shannon

    Pluhowsky. The industry does all

    it can so we have to go elsewhere.

    Maybe we go after female prod-

    ucts like make-up. We always joke

    about going on Oprah or Ellen

    (DeGeneres).

    Does anyone out there have an

    in with those two powerful

    women?
