Belmonte and Feldman Top Qualifying For PBA Don and Paula Carter Mixed Doubles Sponsored by Bayer

After earning top qualifier honors, 2008-09 Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) Rookie of the Year Jason Belmonte of Australia and Michelle Feldman of Auburn, NY, will head a field of 16 mixed doubles teams going into Friday’s match play rounds in the Bayer Don and Paula Carter Mixed Doubles at Brunswick Zone, Wheat Ridge, CO.

Looking for his second Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour title, Belmonte led the 64-player PBA Tour men’s field with a 3,389 14-game pinfall (242 average). Belmonte, who has a two-handed delivery, had games of 245, 257, 258, 268, 220, 233 and 211 in Thursday’s seven-game qualifying round.
“She’s bowling great and I’m bowling great and what more can you ask for than
that,” Belmonte said of his pairing with Feldman. “Michelle’s a winner, she’s won titles so I’m looking forward to bowling with someone that has the experience she has.”

Feldman, a two-time PBA Women’s Series titlist ended Thursday’s qualifying with a 3,199 14-game overall pinfall (228 average). She had games of 258, 229, 211, 194, 258, 217 and 247 in Thursday’s qualifying round.

“The one thing we have in common is that we’re here to bowl well and try the
best we can,” Feldman said. “I haven’t had a real good year so this is the last
hurrah for me this season and I’m hoping we can make the best of it.”

The PBA Tour players and PBA Women’s Series presented by BOWL.COM players competed in separate qualifying rounds which determined the doubles parings. Based on their qualifying ranking, the top 16 men and top 16 women are paired together to compete in Baker format match play beginning Friday. After 16 head-to-head doubles matches, the top five teams will advance to the stepladder finals. The finals format will also use the Baker format where each player will
bowl five alternate frames to combine for one score.

The Mixed Doubles finals will be televised live by ESPN at 1 p.m. Eastern (11
a.m. Mountain) on Sunday, Feb. 21.
