He was frustrated. He bowled 60 frames today and spared or struck in 57 of them. He had two splits and a ten pin that he missed and that was it. He just couldn't get a string strikes together and to shoot big numbers, that's what you have to do. |
He's excited. He knows that there are a lot of very good bowlers that don't get the chance that he has had the past three years. But he's not just happy to he there, he's got goals and he wants them. He wants a top 10 finish and he is more than capable of getting there. |
I don't think he's got anything to be ashamed about. He did what he could do and he just didn't catch the breaks that he needed to. That's the way the game goes. He had one five-bagger (five strikes in a row) in the morning session and then a turkey (three strikes in a row) in the first game of the afternoon session, but after that, he'd run two in a row and then leave a stone eight or nine pin and he'd come back shaking his head. |
