Ron Mohr (pictured left), who won the first two Professional Bowlers Association Senior Tour events of the 2009 season, topped the field of 101 players after first-round qualifying Sunday in the PBA Senior Dick Weber Open at Royal Scot Golf & Bowl.

Mohr, of Eagle River, Alaska, had a 1,894 pinfall (236.7 average) with games of 258, 193, 257, 195, 232, 260, 243 and 256. Rounding out the top five were Rick Minier, Cypress, Texas, 1,852; Dale Csuhta, Wadsworth, Ohio, 1,780; Bobby Johnson, Chillicothe, Ohio, 1,743 and Hall of Famer Mark Williams (right), Beaumont, Texas, 1,730.

"That's probably the best block I've bowled all year," Mohr said. "I had a couple 190 games but even in those games I was throwing the ball well. It didn't seem like I ever missed the pocket."

The entire field will bowl another eight-game qualifying round on Monday after which the field will be cut to the top one-third who will advance to another eight-game qualifying round Tuesday morning.

The field will then be cut to the top 24 for round-robin match Tuesday evening. Match play continues on Wednesday to determine the top five for the stepladder finals scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET.
