Liza del Rosario targets 7th stint in Bowling World Cup
MANILA, Philippines — Multi-titled kegler Liza del Rosario seeks a seventh stint in the Bowling World Cup international event when she paces 43 others in the 2018 BWC national women’s finals set on Sept. 30 at Coronado Lanes (Starlanes).
Del Rosario has already won six national titles to earn the right to represent the Philippines in the prestigious international competition, the last time in Mexico last year.
Del Rosario also saw action in Pattaya, Thailand in 2001, Singapore in 2004, Wroclow, Poland in 2014, Melaka, Malaysia in 2009 and Las Vegas in 2015 and Russia in 2007.
Del Rosario came in second in Pattaya, third in Singapore, fourth in Poland and Las Vegas, sixth in Malaysia and 19th in Russia.
The national champion will compete in the 54th BWC international championship set at Sam’s Town, Las Vegas Nov. 4-11. Last year’s international women’s titlist, Filipina Krizziah Tabora, failed to join the Philippine tourney because she’s on medical leave.
