The Rise and Fall of Bowling’s Financial Standing
Professional bowling once thrived, outpacing golf in earnings during the 1960s and producing the first million-dollar athlete, Don Carter.

With increased sponsorship, better marketing, and modern media strategies, professional bowling could see a resurgence.
