It was nip and tuck aplenty through the final game of the short oil section of the men's division of the European Champions

Marco Reviglio

Cup here at the Roll House bowling center on the outskirts of Ankara on Wednesday evening.

A tussle for pole position between Petri Mannonen of Finland, Italian Marco Reviglio and Arturs Levikins of Latvia with less than ten pins separating the three, saw the spotlight eventually shine on Reviglio, 45, from Genoa, leading the field with 1775, an average of 221.88.

It took an average of 209 to stay in the leading octet, a place necessary to hold after 24 games for the cut on Friday night.

Bob Johnson

Bob Johnson has received more national writing awards than any other bowling writer — close to 70 over the course of his 40-year career. He began at age 16 as a staff writer and then assistant editor for the weekly Pacific Bowler newspaper in his native California, and within three years was writing feature stories for Bowlers Journal. He has written for the magazine ever since, except for a five-year span when he was hired as the founding editor of another magazine. He moved to Chicago in 2000 and spent 13 years in the Windy City, including five as Bowlers Journal’s Editor. In 1975, Johnson received the Robert E. Kennedy Award as California’s top undergraduate high school journalist. Five years earlier, on the lanes, he had shared the Bantam Division Doubles championship in the Orange County Junior Bowling Association Championships. Today, he continues to work full-time for Bowlers Journal as its Senior Editor, to write his popular “Strikes Me” column, and to edit Luby Publishing Inc.’s weekly business-to-business Cyber Report.
