The Lumber Liquidator's Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) Tour’s scheduled tournament in
Medford, Ore., Jan. 4-10, has become a casualty of the national economic slump.
“The Professional Bowlers Association regrets to announce Lava Lanes in Medford will be unable
to host the Don and Paula Carter Mixed Doubles event in 2010,” said PBA Commissioner and CEO
Fred Schreyer. “It’s an unavoidable situation, and it’s too late in the planning process to find a host
center to replace Medford.”
Schreyer said the Don and Paula Carter Mixed Doubles will be moved to Brunswick Zone-Wheat
Ridge in Wheat Ridge, Colo., Feb. 15-21, where it will replace the previously-announced Gemini
Championship.
The cancellation also will mean a minor re-scheduling of the PBA Tour’s 2009-10 ESPN television
schedule. The tape-delayed finals of the Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open presented by the
United States Bowling Congress will be moved from Jan. 3 to Medford’s Jan. 10 date. Schreyer
said a decision on the Jan. 3 air date will be made after discussions with ESPN.
