American Bowling Congress (ABC) Masters
Tore Torgersen gjorde sin beste innsats i den amerikanske PBA touren denne helgen. Det ser ut som the National Bowling Stadium i Reno er en hall som Tore trives i. I VM i 1995 gjorde han en meget god innsats med å ta sølv i ALL evnets i samme hallen. Denne gang ble det en 8. plass på Tore etter å ha møtt sin overmann i den kjente proffen Walter Ray Williams i kampen videre avansement.
I første runde ble det en 5. plass med 1124. I den andre rundet klatret han en plass opp med 2,239. Med 3233 i den 3. runden så var Tore på en 17 plass.
