Re: Johnny Petraglia Throws His Final PBA Tour Shot
Johnny P joked on Xtraframe that it was his best shot of the tournament. He cited lack of ball speed as one of the things he has struggled with.
He did clarify that he's retiring from the PBA tour, but will continue to bowl PBA50/60 events as his schedule allows.
Some great commentary during ToC match play from Marshall Holman, Johnny P, Larry Lichstein and others.
