Qualifying leader Gery Verbruggen of Belgium held on to the lead in the Catalonia Open at Planet Bowling in Gava, Spain, after the quarterfinals. The 4-time European ranking champion added 1314 to his 1438 qualifying total for 2752 12-game total, 229,33 average, to lead the top 24 players into the semi-final.
The 24 players will bowl only four more games - with the pinfall being carried forward - to cut to the top 3 who will advance to the stepladder final. The winner will receive the 10.000 Euro top prize.
Mere 178 players - 131 men and 47 women - participated in the qualifying though the tournament is the fifth European Ranking event and the Tour's second 'major'. One reason could be that the tournament clearly favors women bowlers.
Besides the regular women's handicap on the European Bowling Tour (eight pins each game), the next eight women, who missed the first cut (qualifying) advanced to the quarterfinal. In addition, the Catalonia Open offers 11.200 Euro bonus for the top 5 women including a 5.000 top prize.
Helen Johnsson (pictured) was the best of nine women, who made the second cut. The Swedish champion averaged 220,25 and totaled 2739 including handicap. Stuart Williams of England, who won the Luxembourg Open last weekend, targets his second consecutive EBT title. Williams posted the field-best 1382 six-game total in the Quarterfinal to leap five spots into third place with 2728.
2001 U.S. National Amateur champion Scott Norton is 14th with 2586. Former Team USA member Melissa Bellinder, who fired the tournament's sole 300-game to take the second place after qualifying, fell to 19th place (2577) behind an 1177-set. Marilyn Planchard, France, took the 24th and final qualifying post with 2541.

Gery Verbruggen leads top 24 into semi-finals in Catalonia Open
Qualifying leader Gery Verbruggen of Belgium held on to the lead in the Catalonia Open at Planet Bowling in Gava, Spain, after the quarterfinals. The 4-time European ranking champion added 1314 to his 1438 qualifying total for 2752 12-game total, 229,33 average, to lead the top 24 players into the semi-final. The 24 players will bowl only four more games - with the pinfall being carried forward - to cut to the top 3 who will advance to the stepladder final. The winner will receive the 10.000 Euro top prize.
Mere 178 players - 131 men and 47 women - participated in the qualifying though the tournament is the fifth European Ranking event and the Tour's second 'major'. One reason could be that the tournament clearly favors women bowlers.
Besides the regular women's handicap on the European Bowling Tour (eight pins each game), the next eight women, who missed the first cut (qualifying) advanced to the quarterfinal. In addition, the Catalonia Open offers 11.200 Euro bonus for the top 5 women including a 5.000 top prize.
Helen Johnsson (pictured) was the best of nine women, who made the second cut. The Swedish champion averaged 220,25 and totaled 2739 including handicap. Stuart Williams of England, who won the Luxembourg Open last weekend, targets his second consecutive EBT title. Williams posted the field-best 1382 six-game total in the Quarterfinal to leap five spots into third place with 2728. 2001 U.S. National Amateur champion Scott Norton is 14th with 2586. Former Team USA member Melissa Bellinder, who fired the tournament's sole 300-game to take the second place after qualifying, fell to 19th place (2577) behind an 1177-set. Marilyn Planchard, France, took the 24th and final qualifying post with 2541.
