Daffodil Bowl
July 31st, 2021

Total Paid Out: $8,496.00

 

Wrap Up
The TOUR returned to Daffodil Bowl this week, where we usually see some ideal scores, well within our sweet spot.  This was proven correct where we had 6 bowlers top the 1000 mark, spread across all 4 squads.  With 137 bowlers and 27 players making the cash list, we also had a perfect 'Cut-Line' at 926.  The leader after the 1st squad, with a strong 1086 series, placed a big target on himself and hoped it would hold up all day.  Our top finishers today were two TOP 10 Tour Vets and one Rookie.  Last week we had a couple of bowlers who needed one more Tap for $500.00.  We said Wednesday that the Jackpot is always in danger at Daffodil.  How would you like the chance to throw one bowl for $5,094.00.  Will Twyman had not only one chance but two opportunities to collect the front 7.  In his third game he came close with the front 5 but struck in the sixth.  In his final game, he started again with the front four, followed by some late pin action on #5 & #6, setting up his chance at the 'GOLDEN SHOT' for #7.  Everyone on the lanes had paused their bowling to watch his final attempt.  We all dream of having that ONE SHOT, but this one was tugged to the left.  Nice try Will, we were all cheering for for you!
 
Our TOUR Champion this week is NINE time winner, Huyen Thai.  Using his Storm Pitch Black, he ripped off a very fine 1086 series in the 1st Squad.  This win pushes his impressive career earnings to $37,832.00, putting him within $800 of catching his brother Thang.  They are both very close to becoming the Tour's 7th $40,000.00 earner.  Ought to be a GREAT sibling competition to see who gets there first.  This Tour Vet says he was just lucky this week, but with 9 titles now, he's got some skill.  He has no plans with his winnings of $1,616.00, just going into the bank at this time.
 
Second place went to Tour 'Hall of Fame' Member and Twice 'Bowler Of The Year' James Black.  James shot a great 1040 series, bringing the #5 Earner on the Career "Cash List" to an awesome $44,247.00.  James also placed second on the Scratch High game pot and series for an extra $150.00 to go with his second place finish paying him a well earned $746.00.
 
Third place went to Adam Hamlet, who is not really a ROOKIE, but just seeking his first win.  The very hot Adam did finish last week with his Career Best 5th place finish at Kenmore Lanes, but this week improved that Personal Best with his highest score (1031) and best finish in his career.  Those PB's also brought him another PB check of $423.00.
