PBA Tour titles as of March 31, 2024 — the complete historical list

This list was updated after the 2024 USBC Masters, which was won by DeeRonn Booker on March 31, 2024 .

It is based on this list  compiled by the PBA Tour with corrections and updates by bowling historian Eric Hartman, including researching the dates titles actually were won on, as PBA policy has been to report the dates shows were broadcast as the date a title was won, even if it wasn't when the competition took place.

Hartman also compiled titles won by non-members, which PBA does not recognize as titles, and they are added to the list, making it the most comprehensive in existence. 

Hartman also compiled World Bowling Tour titles and they are listed at the bottom of this list, with an explanation.

What you need to know about PBA On Tour

• Sid Ventura

Just weeks after concluding its 2022-23 season, the PBA is launching a new event called PBA On Tour, a series of games featuring all 12 teams playing in smaller venues mostly in Metro Manila and surrounding provinces. But what is it exactly? From testing new rules, to filling a gap in the schedule, to trying out free agents here is everything you need to know about this summer series.

How long will the "tour" run and how often will games be played?

The tour kicked off on May 21 and will run until July 30. Each team will play the other 11 teams once. There will be no playoffs or championship series. Games will follow the usual PBA schedule of two games on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays and one game on Saturday. The Wednesday-Friday-Sunday schedule will feature a double-header at 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. while the Saturday game kicks off at 5:00 p.m.

What are the motivations for doing this?

Aside from filling the gap between seasons -- which at six months will be the league's longest offseason in history -- there are two major objectives: First, it will allow teams to test free agents, 3x3 players and potential rookies, as well as give them more time to integrate new acquisitions into their scheme of things. Second, it will give the league a chance to test 11 proposed rule changes. The rundown of these 11 rule changes is pretty extensive and can be found here . But the most significant change is the introduction of the coach's challenge. Under this proposal, a head coach can challenge certain calls once each half as long as the team still has a full timeout. If the challenge is unused in the first half, it cannot be carried over to the second half. Other proposed changes include new rules on the take foul, excessive timeouts, goal tending, and game clock operation at the end of the first, second and third quarters.

Who's playing and not playing for the teams?

Several teams are testing out their 3x3 players and potential rookies. Among the 3x3 players are John Apacible, Leo De Vera Chester Saldua and Marvin Lee of San Miguel Beer; Tzaddy Rangel, Pedrito Galanza and Dominic Fajardo of NLEX Road Warriors; Jpseh Eriobu of Magnolia Hotshots; and Jebb Bulawan, Wendel Comboy and Jan Sobrevega of NorthPort Batang Pier.

Players fresh out of college are also seeing action, the most prominent of which is Fran Yu of the Letran Knights, who is playing for his college coach Bonnie Tan at NorthPort. His Letran teammate Tom Olivario is also listed on the Batang Pier roster. There's also Daniel Atienza, formerly of the NU Bulldogs Team B, getting run time under former NU coach Jamike Jarin with the Phoenix Fuel Masters, and San Beda Red Lions Peter Alfaro, Damie Cuntapay, JV Gallego and Clifford Jopia, who are part of the TNT Tropang Giga's roster.

Understandably, many regular starters haven't seen action yet, as coaches are opting to play second stringers and newcomers. SEA Games gold medalists CJ Perez of SMB and Chris Newsome of the Meralco Bolts were present but in street clothes during their respective teams' opening games, as were Javee Mocon of Phoenix and June Mar Fajardo of SMB.

Not all stars will be playing, however, as some are either recuperating from injuries or concentrating on Gilas duties. Some veterans missing from the lineups: Roi Sumang and Arvin Tolentino of NorthPort; Jayson Castro, RR Pogoy and Mikey Williams of TNT; Scottie Thompson, Japeth Aguilar and Jamie Malonzo of Barangay Ginebra San Miguel; and Vic Manuel and Chris Ross of SMB.

Where are they playing and are there tickets?

The venues in Metro Manila include Ynares Pasig, Ynares Antipolo, Caloocan Sports Complex, and the FilOil EcoOil Centre in San Juan. The provincial stops are the Batangas Coliseum, Tiaong in Quezon, Baliuag in Bulacan, and Dumaguete. The good news for fans is that admission is free.

What's up next for the Philippines basketball scene during and after this?

Plenty of basketball. Gilas will practice in June as it prepares for a European training camp in July. PBA On Tour will end 26 days before the FIBA World Cup kicks off on August 25.

After the World Cup ends on Sept. 10 and before the Hangzhou Asian Games on Sept. 23, the league will hold its rookie combine and rookie draft.

The league's 48th season will open after the Asian Games, which end on Oct. 10. Only two conferences will be played, but it's not yet clear if the Governors' Cup or Commissioner's Cup will join the Philippine Cup. This and other issues will be decided by the PBA Board during their annual planning session at the end of May.

Blackwater survives NLEX rally as PBA On Tour kicks off with new rules in play

SKY HIGH. Blackwater forward Tyrus Hill attempts a dunk in the 2023 PBA On Tour.

MANILA, Philippines – The Blackwater Bossing kicked off the PBA On Tour exhibition series with a 93-88 win over the NLEX Road Warriors at the Caloocan Sports Complex on Sunday, May 21.

Reserve guard Mike Ayonayon led the way with 16 points off the bench on 6-of-10 shooting, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists in just 18 minutes, while fellow gunner Rey Suerte added 14 points in as many minutes.

Diminutive playmaker RK Ilagan showed off his hustle with 9 points, a team-high 8 rebounds with 4 from the offensive end, and 4 dimes. High-flyer Tyrus Hill added 8 points, 6 boards, and 2 blocks in a team-high 27 minutes.

It was practically all Blackwater from the get-go as James Sena drilled a three with 1:32 left in the first half for an 18-point lead, 49-31, and the Bossing stayed ahead by as many as 16, 66-50, halfway through the third quarter.

However, NLEX woke up with a 19-5 barrage to get within two, 69-71, off a Sean Anthony layup in the final minute, just before a Mike DiGregorio response from downtown salvaged Blackwater a 74-69 lead heading into the fourth.

Anthony helped the Road Warriors stay within striking distance until the 2:30 mark of the payoff period, 88-85, but the Bossing defense erased any comeback hopes as they pushed the lead back to 7, 92-85, off a pair of clutch Ilagan charities with just 32 ticks left.

NLEX’s last-ditch rally was also notable for the league’s first implementation of the coach’s challenge, which the Road Warriors successfully used with 3:22 left in regulation to confirm a Joshua Torralba foul on Anthony.

The coach’s challenge is just one of the many rule changes the PBA is trying out in this no-bearing slate of exhibition games.

Anthony paced the loss with a game-high 18 points, while Don Trollano tallied a 15-point, 10-rebound double-double.

Blackwater played without the leadership of JVee Casio and Troy Rosario, while NLEX put up a great effort despite not having young standouts Matt Nieto and new Southeast Asian Games gold medalist Brandon Ganuelas-Rosser.

The Bossing’s win also marked a successful PBA debut for former Ateneo high school mentor Joe Silva, who took over for the newly signed Jeffrey Cariaso.

Blackwater 93 – Ayonayon 16, Suerte 14, Sena 9, Ilagan 9, Hill 8, Torralba 8, Ular 6, DiGregorio 5, Amer 5, Taha 5, Publico 4, McCarthy 3, Banal 1.

NLEX 88 – Anthony 18, Trollano 15, Galanza 13, Fajardo 10, Alas 8, Rosales 7, Doliguez 5, Rangel 4, Miranda 3, Gabo 3, Pascual 2, Celda 0.

Quarters: 23-16, 49-36, 74-69, 93-88.

What you need to know about PBA On Tour

• Sid Ventura

Just weeks after concluding its 2022-23 season, the PBA is launching a new event called PBA On Tour, a series of games featuring all 12 teams playing in smaller venues mostly in Metro Manila and surrounding provinces. But what is it exactly? From testing new rules, to filling a gap in the schedule, to trying out free agents here is everything you need to know about this summer series.

How long will the "tour" run and how often will games be played?

The tour kicked off on May 21 and will run until July 30. Each team will play the other 11 teams once. There will be no playoffs or championship series. Games will follow the usual PBA schedule of two games on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays and one game on Saturday. The Wednesday-Friday-Sunday schedule will feature a double-header at 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. while the Saturday game kicks off at 5:00 p.m.

Several teams are testing out their 3x3 players and potential rookies. Among the 3x3 players are John Apacible, Leo De Vera Chester Saldua and Marvin Lee of San Miguel Beer; Tzaddy Rangel, Pedrito Galanza and Dominic Fajardo of NLEX Road Warriors; Jpseh Eriobu of Magnolia Hotshots; and Jebb Bulawan, Wendel Comboy and Jan Sobrevega of NorthPort Batang Pier.

PBA World Series of Bowling XV Shark

Sunday, April 14 - Sunday, April 21 View Television Times

Stepladder Finals Set at Roth/Holman PBA Doubles Championship

Top 16 doubles teams advance to round-robin match play

The stepladder finals of the 2024 Roth/Holman PBA Doubles Championship, the first title event of the PBA World Series of Bowling XV, is set.

The five baker doubles teams advancing to the finals, in order of seeding, are Andrew Anderson and Kris Prather, Jason Belmonte and Bill O’Neill, Dom Barrett and Anthony Simonsen, Jesper Svensson and Kyle Troup, and defending champions Packy Hanrahan and Mitch Hupé.

The 10 finalists own a combined 103 PBA Tour titles, 32 major titles and 11 Roth/Holman PBA Doubles victories.

        View this post on Instagram                       A post shared by PBA TOUR (@pbatour)

Teams bowled 10 individual games on Thursday — five on the 38-foot Holman pattern and five on the 42-foot Roth pattern — before 16 games of round-robin, dual-pattern baker match play on Friday.

Anderson and Prather seized the No. 1 seed by surpassing Belmonte and O’Neill in the position round. The 2021 champions of this event started the tournament in 46th place after Game 1 and steadily rose all the way to the top seed.

“It was a very nervous start,” Anderson said. “We both want this. We talk about it all the time. I mean literally all the time, especially me. We already have a win. We have multiple shows. We know what it's like to do this, and so even after Game 1, there was nothing that was stopping us.”

“To get to bowl for a title in Michigan (45 minutes from his hometown of Holly), it’s going to be pretty special,” Anderson added. “I would be lying if I said I haven't been thinking about this every day for a while. I've been close, man. I've been so close. It’s been a rough ride the last couple of years. The irony is the last time we won the doubles, it was in his home state and now we’re in mine, so maybe we’re going to turn it around.”

Prather has gone through similar struggles over the past couple seasons, finishing 16th in 2023 season points and sitting 36th through seven events this season. He said he spent a few hours working with Mike Jasnau after the USBC Masters last week and a simple suggestion to his footwork has paid immediate dividends.

“I've been throwing it physically better than I have in a long time,” Prather said. “After dealing with the (forearm) injury last year, I finally feel like I'm back to 100%. I'm so excited to be bowling on TV again.”

Belmonte and O’Neill, who won the event in 2018, led from Game 31-35 before the position round. The most-accomplished team in the finals takes a less-is-more approach when it comes to communication.

“It’s about letting Bill do what Bill does, and Bill lets me do what I do,” Belmonte said. “I don't think there's too many opinions flying around. We talk about what we see, but we really just stay out of each other's way and let our natural games glide into it. When he’s as great as he is, I really don't need to say too many things.”

O’Neill said he struggled during qualifying, but Belmonte threw enough strikes to get the team through until he worked out his physical game issues. Once O’Neill corrected his body position and straightened his swing on Friday, he said, he was able to get himself dialed in.

Four of the five teams have previously won the event; Simonsen and Barrett are the only team who hasn’t.

“It’s our turn now,” Barrett said.

However, Simonsen won his first career title at the 2016 Roth/Holman PBA Doubles Championship with Connor Pickford, which makes Barrett the lone player to have not won the event. Barrett said he struggled on Friday morning, but Simonsen kept the team going. 

“Simo managed that left lane better than most people who bowled for sure,” Barrett said. “I managed to strike a decent amount on the right lane to keep up. It was one of the things where we sort of just bowled, looked up and we’re third.”

Qualifying and match play were held in the main bay of Thunderbowl Lanes, which contains lanes 21-74. The finals will be held in the newly-renamed “Strobl Arena” on lanes 11-12.

Tom Strobl, who helped launch the inaugural World Series of Bowling in 2009, passed away last April . PBA Commissioner Tom Clark announced the renaming of the arena during the PBA SKILL Ball Challenge last summer .

“I’ve bowled over there most recently out of everybody,” said Simonsen, who won the 2023 USBC Masters in the arena. “I think we've got a pretty good understanding. I think it'll just be a matter of coming out and getting comfortable very quickly since it's half as many (practice) shots as you normally get, and then see what happens from there.”

Troup and Svensson lost their position round match with Simonsen and Barrett, but tied Hupé and Hanrahan for the final berths on the show. Troup beat Hanrahan in a one-ball roll-off with a strike to the lefty’s eight-count to earn the No. 4 seed and advance to their fourth doubles show.

“It's one of the tournaments that we look forward to the most,” Svensson said. “In a team environment, if you're not really comfortable with who you're bowling with, it's going to be tough. We definitely enjoy bowling together and make each other comfortable and always bounce off of each other. It shows. Maybe we didn't have the absolute best ball reaction in the building, but we definitely fought our way here.”

“Our friendship is what makes us so good,” Troup said. “We have the same energy. I'm starting to find that killer mentality that Jesper has had for years and we just enjoy bowling together.”

The tournament bears the name of PBA Hall of Famers Mark Roth and Marshall Holman, who won three doubles titles together on the PBA Tour.

Troup and Svensson, two-time doubles champions, said their goal is to get the tournament renamed after themselves before they retire.

“We’re probably going to need more than three titles,” Troup said. “I don’t think anybody wanted us to make the show, so I think that’s how confident we feel.”

In the opening match of the finals — which will be taped Saturday, April 6 at 6 p.m. ET and air Sunday, April 14 at noon ET on FS1 — Svensson and Troup will meet Hanrahan and Hupé, who won last year’s Roth/Holman PBA Doubles Championship in Middletown, Del .

While the duo cruised to the No. 1 seed a year ago, they were never in the top five until the final shot thrown on Friday.

Hanrahan and Hupé entered the position round in eighth place and 80 pins behind fifth place. After starting with a spare, they threw 10 consecutive strikes to shoot 289 and jump all the way into a tie for fourth place.

“Packy is always so positive. He just said, ‘Let's throw a good game and you never know,’” Hupé said. “We threw five good shots each. We got lucky at the end, a few breaks went our way and unfortunately for the other team it didn't go their way, and here we are.”

Jason Sterner and Tom Smallwood, who were in sixth place and won the position round over fifth-placed Mathias Ankerdal and Tim Stampe 220-200, finished 10 pins out of the show. Smallwood left a 2-8-10 split in the 10th frame of the final game.

Hanrahan and Hupé, who won last year’s event on BowlTV, said they are excited about the opportunity to defend their title on national television.

“It's cool that we get to try and defend the title,” Hanrahan said. “Whatever happens, happens. It's so hard to win, so you don't come in expecting to win this tournament.”

The Roth/Holman PBA Doubles Championship finals will be taped Saturday, April 6 at 6 p.m. ET and air Sunday, April 14 at noon ET on FS1.

Tickets for the show taping, which includes entry to the 1:30 p.m. ET PBA Elite League matches, are available here .
