May 05, 2024
LAS VEGAS – Indianapolis’ Joey Krzywonos put together the best performance of his young career at the United States Bowling Congress Open Championships this week in Las Vegas, and he cashed in a fortunate roll of the pins on his final delivery of doubles to record a 300 game along the way.
The 27-year-old posted games of 251, 213 and 300 on Saturday during doubles at the South Point Bowling Plaza for a 764 series, and he paired with Kyle Luckett of Indianapolis (604 series) to finish with a 1,368 total in Regular Doubles.
He added 654 in singles and 604 in team to finish with his top all-events score (2,022) over his five appearances at the USBC Open Championships.
Krzywonos posted the 11th 300 game of the 2024 event Saturday, and his performance marked the fourth 300 in doubles competition at the Bowling Plaza.
The powerful right-hander mixed up the pins with a pocket hit on his first delivery in the 10th frame of Game 3, and his 11th shot left little doubt as it hit flush in the pocket.
Things got interesting on his final delivery for perfection, as the shot was left of target and went through the head pin to leave the 3-6 standing for a moment.
A pin bounced across the deck to connect with the 3 pin first, before also catching the 6 pin to officially secure the 300 score.
Watch the video below as Krzywonos talks about their game plan and an early prediction for 300, his nerves on the final shot and a fun moment with Luckett, the emotion of being able to share this accomplishment with his wife and what this overall performance means looking ahead in his tournament career.
The 2024 Open Championships got underway Feb. 23 and will run through July 29 at the South Point Bowling Plaza. The tournament is scheduled to feature more than 11,000 teams and 55,000 bowlers making their way to compete in Las Vegas.
