It’s Aalborg Carnival Eve this Friday night and serious partying is on the cards. Therefore, there were only 14 signed up for the 21:00 squad this evening as most players wanted to enjoy the shows and atmosphere, as well as the local brews. One person who was pleased she didn’t join the revelry was Denmark’s [...]

Squad 9 saw a tough fight for supremacy between players fom Finland and Denmark, with a couple of Swedes joining the action in the later stages.

Mika Koivuniemi, the lithe Finn who made his name on the PBA Tour and now lives in Michigan in the United States, came from behind to topple Kim Olleby and Martin Paulsson of Sweden to clinch the honors of Squad 8 Friday afternoon. Koivuniemi totaled 1428 to win the squad by 21 pins, needing to [...]

Martin Larsen, the instantly recognizeable lofty, lithe Swede wearing the ubiquitous Team Pergamon shirt, is well on the road to defending his Bowltech Aalborg International title after taking over the top place on the leader board on the early Friday morning Squad 7.

Paul Hutchinson, 20, from Esbjerg in western Denmark, outpointed the talented PBA pro Mika Koivuniemi by a squeaker to take the honors from Squad 5, 1416 – 1405 over the six games.

Thursday’s opening squad, hitting the lanes at 11:00 local time, the first of three stints for the day, saw the 2010 tournament’s first perfect game, that from the gentle hands of the lithe Dane Thomas Larsen. That perfecto brought him well up into contention and he carried forward on the crest of that wave to [...]

Danish international Jesper Agerbo, the guy who went those memorable rounds against Walter Ray Williams in the Master final of the 2008 World Men’ Championhip in Bangkok, Thailand and came away with the silver medal, once again played an inspired six-game series to take the third squad honors on Wednesday night. Agerbo opened his set [...]

Tuesday night’s second squad results made interesting reading as Team Aalborg’s John Guldbak posted 1350 to top the squad and therefore book his place in sunday’s finals, but also had the bonus of $1,000 from Ebonite for wearing the company shirt and using the appropriate bowling balls whilst doing so.
