12-year-old Kamron Doyle of Brentwood, Tennessee, finished 30th in the PBA's Canton (Ga.) Open Regional tournament this past weekend, netting him $400 that will be deposited into a scholarship account.
Bowling as a non-PBA member, he had a 2,797 13-game pinfall total for a 215.1 average. The sixth-grader was competing against a 94-player field that included some of the top regional and national tour professional players.
He was already the youngest bowler to roll a US Bowling Congress-certified 800 series. He became interested in the sport when he was 7.
"After that he was hooked," his mother, Cathy, said- according to PBA.com. "Before we knew it he was bowling three days a week and at this point I think he's got about 60 bowling balls."
Kamron wants to go to either Wichita or Weber State for college, and then bowl on the pro tour...
Here's some proof that the kid was legit as an 11-year-old...
