Both players had a 2,199 nine-game pinfall with Ciminelli bowling games of 220, 246, 257, 219, 289, 204, 256, 245 and 263 and Page games of 225, 266, 280, 236, 259, 280, 226, 227 and 200.
“This is not normally a shot I would do real well on,” Ciminelli said of the new PBA 45-foot Don Johnson lane condition pattern. “The key for me is to take advantage of the condition right off the bat where there is a good hook spot right around the 6-8 board. But then you really have to pay attention to the
motion of the ball to keep pace with the changing conditions throughout the block and I was able to stay ahead of the transitions.”
Ciminelli is trying for his second career PBA Tour title having won his first title in last season’s Earl Anthony Memorial Open in Dublin, Calif. This season his best finish was 10th in the PBA World Championship.
Page, a three-time Tour champion, with his last win coming in the 2009 PBA Viper Championship, has a best finish of 17th this season which also came in the PBA World Championship.
“I’ve been practicing a lot and really working on my mental game,” Page said. “I’m working on not getting so emotional and eliminate the ups and downs. This is the first time in a long time that I’ve really felt as prepared as I should be going into a tournament.”
Ciminelli and Page topped 22 other players who advanced to Sunday’s match play round which will determine the four finalists for Sunday's stepladder finals which will get underway at 6 p.m. ET. Rounding out the top five in qualifying were PBA Hall of Famer Pete Weber, 2,083; and Dom Barrett and Patrick Dombrowski both with 2,077.
The Ricart Ford Open is the second PBA Tour event of the season to be streamed live exclusively on PBA’s Xtra Frame online bowling channel.
