Injury list Grew at Don Johnson Eliminator

John Nolen of Waterford, MI, remained on the sidelines after an emergency
appendectomy following the USBC Masters, and he had company during the Etonic 
Don Johnson Eliminator when Australia’s Jason Belmonte and veterans Pete Weber
of St. Ann, MO, and Patrick Allen of Wesley Chapel, FL, bowed out due to health
issues.

Belmonte returned home to Australia to nurse a hamstring injury sustained in the
final round of match play in the U.S. Open. Weber hurt his back during practice
prior to the start of the Eliminator, and Allen withdrew due to a knee injury
after four games. Robert Smith, who currently calls Columbus, Ohio, home, also
withdrew during the second round due to a sudden illness.
