[@ianhoneycutt3858]

Man, I loved this tournament. A bunch of my favorite bowlers were here. And Sean Rash was also here

[@Firefighter_303]

Bo Burton and Chris Shenkel were an amazing duo the likes of which the pba will never see again

[@douglasharris5216]

Firefighter 303 agreed

[@AngrySecs]

I want Fagan back 😭😭😭😭

[@Joey_Hammer]

Same! But I think he's doing something that he likes more.

[@AngrySecs]

@@Joey_Hammer yessir. But he will always have the best swing in the game in my eyes. Forever the king of swing

[@Joey_Hammer]

@@AngrySecs 100% best form. king...

[@BornIn1500]

@@Joey_Hammer more like Fagan knows there's no money in bowling. He can make more doing something else. If you're not in the top 4 or 5 bowlers for the year, you're not making much.

[@Joey_Hammer]

@@BornIn1500 that’s a big problem with professional bowling right now

'The tournament of champions is the event that everyone is a champion' - Sean Rash

[@glorious1.070]

Yeah. I mean you do have to be a past champion to compete....

[@craternose348]

@@glorious1.070well there are pre tournament qualifiers that people without a title could bowl in for a spot in the toc so not 100 percent everyone who bowls in this tournament is a champion but definitely the majority are

[@beeemm2578]

Spoken like a headcase loser...lol

[@Tcrror]

I'm surprised when Rash actually finishes a frame the first try.

[@TheAbele992]

Prob can't finish in his wife

[@icanhearcolors3984]

@@TheAbele992 DAMN

[@Steve.Orland]

@@TheAbele992 Hey man, you bowl for Binghamton, right? This is Steve O … I remember seeing your comment in a video including Sammy V, something like “this guy is my coach now!” So I assume we bowl next to each other every week!

[@justinperrin578]

You guys notice the size difference between ciminelli's left and right arm it's weird if you look at it

[@OlympicSeason]

justin perrin lol yeah! He beefed up since this match

[@knightlife98]

Indeed. When I was bowling for a good while there. My right shoulder and arm, were easily bigger than my left side.

[@douglasharris5216]

It’s a pretty common occurrence among professional bowlers, bowlers that use the two handed delivery will not show as much the discrepancy

[@douglasharris5216]

That’s why you should be ambidextrous whilst master bating

[@jakesnussbuster3565]

@@douglasharris5216 that doesn't even make sense lol all the power is still created with your throwing arm. Yes, there will be less of a problem with it, but non existent? No.

[@SavageBowlingTV]

Gotta miss Mike Fagan! Good for him though on doing what he is doing now!

[@douglasharris5216]

Savage Bowling TV agreed, he’s still working for the good of the game

[@nickberg2821]

thanks PBA for the upload

[@brando9751]

He’s a great bowler. I don’t understand why so many people hate him.

[@GamingFanactic911]

he is a good bowler but he has some issues with his attitude and consistency

[@foxwolf316]

sean rash is like the chris barnes type bowler, they both had chances of winning more than 10 pba titles, instead they would of won 20 tour titles, but they choke so often, hell even sean rash caused his friend matt a chance to win another doubles title this year 2023, and he f up again, same thing he did back in 2019 when dick allen beat him by one pin, or how chirs barnes lost against michael haugen in TOC 2008, so there's reasons why people don't respect them is much, they have the mental part in there mines that's causing them to lose a lot.

[@sxnchou]

9:31 interesting leave

[@Walker-nr1mz]

Sam Li Jie I love that

[@antoniozapata2330]

I met Sean rash in Vegas last year

[@christophermelendez4482]

Look at the crowd when Sean throws the strike to win everyone looks unhappy Mostly everyone wanted Ryan to win, nobody likes Sean rash

[@douglasharris5216]

Christopher Melendez I’d have to disagree, Rash has a pretty good following, however I am not one of those followers

[@NateCraven318]

While I respect your opinion, I actually don't mind Sean Rash. Now, there are a lot of bowlers who don't like him very much, they say he can get a little too cocky, but I think that if he can bowl the way he did in this tournament, or like the way he did at the '07 Masters, then that makes up for it. Then again, he's changed a lot. He's really cleaned up his act since then.

[@davidharlan6147]

InstaBlaster

[@chadcolvin2510]

What a game he gutted it out and deserved that win

[@HalloGais]

Damn going back to this telecast, Ryan’s arm looked much larger when his torso was thinner lol. That’s crazy!

[@Daren_PNW]

What degree did Fagan pursue leaving bowling?

[@lcfighter5882]

jason belmonte my fav idol

[@jodybutler4752]

In that event I like both rash and Belmonte

[@trainboi21]

1:08:20 what makes me laugh is that no one really seems to care that this idiot Rash won. LOL the only plus side is that his wife is hot.

[@JD-ju9kg]

Mmmmmmm I don't know. They looked liked they cared to me

[@NateCraven318]

I do believe you could have worded that better, and while I respect your opinion, I actually don't mind Sean Rash.

[@alexischeeseman4699]

Congrats Sean Rash🥳

[@jordanjonker1626]

Pederson doesn't understand that Belmonte can pull the ball it is not "physically impossible"

[@douglasharris5216]

jordan jonker agreed, Belmonte still throws the ball with his dominant hand like all bowlers

[@knightlife98]

Damn Randy, give Bo a little elbow room, will ya.....

[@douglasharris5216]

Scott Crabtree Randy doesn’t want Bo too close because it would make Randy look bad

[@lucasg__]

Dude! My favorite is Mike Fagan

[@douglasharris5216]

Lucas Gabriel Villa yes, Mike is a decent person

[@pantomine.]

Belmonte in 2012: One day, I would like to be with a few pros like me. Me today: 4 years later, he's on Dude Perfect.

[@knightlife98]

Does Fagan bowl with a tennis shoe and a bowling shoe? And, I have never seen the leave, Ryan left in the 4th frame of the first game!!!!

[@douglasharris5216]

Scott Crabtree it was something different for sure, I saw a two hander leave the 1-2-3-7-8-9 on the Prodigy Tour

[@andrewphillips2179]

both Sean Rash and Jason Belmonte have bowled amazingly well in the Tournament of Champions

[@pifster300]

Shut up

[@Bowling_Planet]

44:33 What happened here 🤣

[@Krranski]

Never can go wrong with a little Weber. Lol but yea I caught it too.

[@GamingFanactic911]

Good job editors. Also, hi Bowling Planet. :D

[@alonzotanner1226]

Damn I heard Mike Fagan retired from the PBA tour. Is that true? He was real good.

[@georgeferguson3205]

Lon Tanner He's just not full time anymore

[@ryanlepore3058]

Was it possible that there was some sort of (special?)"hard oil" coated on the lanes manipulating their rolls, or were Ciminelli & Fagan were just naturally having their days in this first match?

[@jakehansen9199]

Ryan Lepore I'd say they were just having their day

[@BokiDeeJay]

His left hand is 2 times bigger than right ....

[@douglasharris5216]

[@Luke-gm9um]

Good afternoon gran love you too grandson corey dragon Red Ranger reboot ❤❤

[@jamesbryant6735]

The 9-10 isn't a split, a ball has to pass between two or more pins excluding the head pin.

[@petervoyt24]

"back in our day we didn't miss single pin spares" ....... LOL HEY PEDERSEN REMEMBER MISSING THAT FIVE PIN ON NATIONAL TV ???

30:38 I just noticed Sean Rash’s wife and father didn’t clap when MJ announced his name

[@superflexminecraft8259]

49:16 pause?

[@alvinkalaw7762]

Prize funds from the 80's was more than it is today, you would think it would be more now.. I think its because of lack of big name advertising

alvin kalaw prize funds are moving up with the addition of Fox Sports and Bowlero buying the PBA

[@ItsExoh]

Still strongly dislike rash

[@Gabriel.Gmoney444]

[@blargy7283]

Cameron Tyler That's what he does. He has a bowling shoe on his slide foot and a sneaker on his other foot. It's not uncommon actually.

[@GlobalStormGrip]

Please upload the 2011 US Open in 720p60

[@Ben-jz3mt]

Yeah. I don't get that. They upload an old TV finals at 60fps, but new ones are always 30fps. 60fps looks much better, so I don't get why they do that ALL the time

[@epicgodzilla62]

That earrape at the end of the championship match tho. Still though, kudos to him, even if I'm like 6 years late

[@TheAbele992]

Sounds like he's being raped

[@Elias-cl1eo]

Ciminelli absolutely the best

[@douglasharris5216]

Elias 96 is that why he got suspended from the PBA from bowling in two events in the summer of 2019?

[@alonzotanner1226]

Wow, you can tell Ciminelli bowls a LOT. His left arm is so much bigger than his right it's kinda gross. Surprised he doesn't try to work the other arm out when he's not bowling. Anyway, nice form though.
