The first event in the made-for-Xtra Frame series, which will be available for $2.99 per event, will pit Malott against two of the PBA’s hottest players, 2016 PBA Player of the Year EJ Tackett of Huntington, Ind., and Australia’s Jason Belmonte, who won Player of the Year honors the previous three years, in a three-game total pinfall winner-take-all match. Coverage of the match on Wednesday, April 12, will begin with a pre-game show at 9:30 p.m. Proceeds from each special pay per view event will determine the prize money paid to the King of Bowling winner. The one-time $2.99 special event fee will apply to all viewers, including current Xtra Frame subscribers. To sign up for any of the special on- line video streaming events, visit www.xtraframe.tv. The King of Bowling series will continue throughout the season with the winner defending his crown in an upcoming PBA Xtra Frame King of Bowling Pay Per View event to be announced. Details will be announced later. To recap Malott’s dominant reign in the 2009 series held at the Kegel Training Center in Lake Wales, Fla., the then 32-year-old “Sir Strikes-a-lot” defended his King of Bowl- ing crown five consecutive weeks and became the first bowler in PBA history to bowl two nationally-televised 300 games in defeating Parker Bohn III of Jackson, N.J., 300-223, in the KOB finale. During his run, Malott defeated Chris Barnes, 268-214; Patrick Allen, 258-234; Walter Ray Williams Jr., 300-238, and Rhino Page, 257-233, before closing with his perfect victory over Bohn in the made-for-ESPN2 series. For perspective, Tackett (the winner of the 2016 PBA World Champion and 2017 Fire- Lake PBA Tournament of Champions) was 16 years old when Malott won his last King of Bowling match. Belmonte (the winner of the 2017 Barbasol PBA Players Championship and USBC Masters) had just won his first PBA title in West Babylon, N.Y., on his way to winning 2008-09 PBA Rookie of the Year honors. While the King of Bowling didn’t count for any titles, Malott went on to win three PBA Tour titles and PBA Player of the Year honors for the 2008-09 season.
