The Australian two-hander who dominates the PBA - a rhyming poem.
The rise of bowling's most talented cranker -
A two-handed player named Jason Belmonte -
Is the PBA's version of top money-maker
And professional bowling's most valued commodity.

Eyes set on the prize, he drives through the pins,
Such power and revs, the rack stands no chance.
He supplies so much force that the ball simply spins -
And rips out the corner pins through his advance.

His homeland, Australia, has never produced
A professional player of this championship caliber.
The bowler of the year is now introduced:
It's the third straight award for the Aussie to savor.

With numerous titles and majors now won,
The number one player is thankful and proud.
Nothing will faze him, for he'll never run,
Lofting quite easily, sitting on a cloud.
