TGANK YOU

[@matthong7713]

Great idea!

[@TheVicvega26]

Wonderful!

[@joellee2748]

THAT INTRO THO Also, wow. Probably the tournament I will never forget in a long while. 58th after round 1. 58TH! And then wins it all in the end. Incredible.

[@LurkerEternal]

I like Norm as a bowler and commentator. What a class act!

[@GrowingUpGarden]

This guy is amazing. He makes it look easy

[@aarontoilet2857]

FYI, the 2 lanes that were bowled on in this event are the same lanes that brought us the first televised 300 game on the PBA tour which was done by Jack Biondolillo back in 1967. Biondolillo’s last 3 strikes were thrown on lane 28 in this historic bowling center.

[@antoniozapata2330]

Me too. I’m a big fan of Belmo I met him in 2017, in Las Vegas.

[@MMPAspergerian]

Wow! Great bowling for everyone!

[@beeemm2578]

1:00:16 😢 Simo crying after bad shot, takes a dig.

[@GamingTohru698]

I'm a big Belmo fan and I'm happy he won his 15th Major. Felt bad for EJ losing though. The lane conditions were difficult and they weren't within EJ's control.

[@beatngu5513]

Nah not buying it. Love Ej and he was smoking everyone that's why he was the 1 seed. Seems like when the pressures on he can't get out of his own head and chokes. That's why Belmo has 15. Dudes got ice in his vains..

[@cjs83172]

Only one player was able to figure out the most legendary pair of lanes the sport has (lanes 27 and 28 at Riviera) over three sessions, and he was the man who won, and became the first 4-time winner of the Tournament of Champions. They had even mentioned on the previous night's coverage how nobody was able to really figure out that pair of lanes (there had been quite a number of players to win one game, only to fall apart in the next game), and yet Jason Belmonte won 6 games in a row over two sessions on that pair of lanes, each over a different competitor.

[@antoniozapata2330]

Me too I met him in 2017 in LAS Vegas

We gotta hear what Couch has to say about this

[@lumorndaer227]

The irony of his statements ahah

he won't say anything, just crying about 2 handers advantage blah blah blah...

Congrats to Belmo. Champ

Belmo's a great bowler, maybe the best, and a good sport when his game is off ! "He just keeps on keeping on" !

[@craternose348]

Belmo is the best bowler in history no one comes close what a goat

[@BornIn1500]

Belmo still doesn't have the wins that the GOAT Walter Ray has.

[@craternose348]

@@BornIn1500 Don’t matter belmo has more major wins then anyone in history which count more then regular pba tournaments plus belmo is still bowling and winning, Walter pretty much just competes in the 50 tour now so by the time belmo retires I guarantee he will have more tour titles overall

[@BornIn1500]

@@craternose348 Don't matter. Walter has more titles than anyone in history and CONTINUES to stack them up in the PBA50. Guaranteed Belmo won't visit the US to bowl the PBA50 tour so Belmo's wins will end soon enough and he'll be way short of Walter's wins.

[@craternose348]

@@BornIn1500 Belmo isn’t 50 though😂😂 so that means nothing, I’m talking about the main tour and are you special? Majors are the most important event on the tour and belmo has the most in history so you can stick with your opinion but I will stick with facts

[@BornIn1500]

@@craternose348 You're clearly not understanding the point, kid 🤣 Belmo won't be around to win all the titles that Walter has. Belmo already lost.

[@beeemm2578]

15:00 Norm makes a great point....Belmo has so much power in the ball it makes so much more room to hit. You dont have to be precise like a down and in player. That creates a huge advantage. Plus Belmo doesn't have that choke gene you see in some of these guys. EJs asshole just puckered....simple as that.

[@FB_Projects]

666th like 66th comment what a coincidence

[@sxnchou]

uh obviously you'll miss if you throw a straight angle and miss half an arrow because you didnt create any hold room on the inside for your angle because you were never supposed to be there? 1:00:20 simo baby

[@ltfl09]

Sterner threw. When will pros learn not to use Urethane when it's overhooking or at least play in the oil more?

[@edwardranno7119]

Sterner is a great bowler he’s using a ball that he feel comfortable with

[@annwatts7002]

The ONLY person or PRO-Bowler I DON'T LAUGH at heheheheHA! is SIMO!!

[@TheCD5150]

Move over, Mike Durbin. Move over, Jason Couch. The real king of the Tournament of Champions and majors in general is Jason Belmonte.

TIME TO BLOCK SOME SPOILERS SPOILER SHIELD 🔰

[@everettgloverlll9052]

1:16:59 Huge break

[@ballistic350]

Old video belmo won

[@annwatts7002]

I will always throw the ball over the 5th dot board loft about 5' to the strike on either the right side or the Brooklyn side I did both for a 300 & in glow ball. one game I switched right side Brooky, right side Brooky & got a 300 in glow ball heheheheHA! last 2 week I had four 300 games

[@godj16]

Get rid of randy keep norm

[@edwardranno7119]

I like randy.but then again,I am old school

[@BasementTracks]

Please no, Randy is way better.

[@godj16]

@@BasementTracks ya no randy is very annoying and just always has crap to say.

[@bmac6679]

Spitting in his hand. That's the grossest thing I've seen in bowling.

[@Winterrgamez]

The spitting on the hand is madd gross

[@annwatts7002]

Even OLD man Randy Peterson can be a PRO-bowler again if he watches my videos on Rumble how to throw a straight fun ball to the strike zone. I bowled 65 games one day then the next day 50 games & so on. but I'm only 65 on 6-19-23 this year, shorter then the duke by 2 or 3 inches & older then the Duke by 6 years. I'm 5'3' tall, 145 lbs I'm too sexy for my bowling heheheheHA! I will bowl over 100 straight games soon. its only 1,000 frames

[@AdubsMMA]

Sterner spitting on his hands, then putting that spit on his shoes, then spreading his saliva all over the approach.. 🤦🏻‍♂️ That would annoy me.

[@MrIncrysis]

2 handed style needs to go. Simonsen is a little baby.

[@davidwilliams5350]

But he's a hell of a bowler !

[@annwatts7002]

NONE of any of these "pro-Bowlers" really KNOW how to bowl they all relay on the ball NOT there SKILL at all right down to the Duke!

[@jaceayala4449]

You alright in the head?

[@annwatts7002]

its nice they use all kinds of balls & some skill is great too@@jaceayala4449

[@waynehoerig9148]

two hand cheating

[@joecrosby8115]

2 handed bowlers shouldn't be allowed....learn how to bowl the right way.....they couldn't learn to throw a hook with 2 fingers and a thumb in the ball one handed so they took the easy way out

[@johnnylam3644]

if you took your thumb out, you might be half as good as these guys

[@johnlinks]

There's nothing wrong either way. Stop living in the past. Adapt and grow and play whatever way you want to play

[@scottlewis5521]

what makes it easier? are you saying it's a better method? if that's the case how come all the pros haven't switched to 2 handed?

[@Monk-Amani.]

@Joe Crosby • Finnish pro bowler Osku Palermaa brought it to the PBA. Personally, being 66 and a bowler, 56 of those yrs. I feel the same, but they have to knock 'em down as well. What I dislike is the amount of carry that the Hi-Revs generate. Controlling that beast is their problem.

[@binaryanticommunist1882]

If it's so easy to do, then we look forward to your 15 Major titles. Get to work.

[@joekuhn8052]

kinda ...ugh... they do change balls and such and arrows etc and lines..... but only because they want to hook and such... meaning ..seems like they are making things look harder than they really are..... h,mmm
