Notable bowlers for 2012 USBC Open

On any given day at the United States Bowling Congress Open Championships, it's possible to run into a USBC Hall of Famer, past champion or average leader, Team USA member or former Professional Bowlers Association star. It's also possible to be on-site when an unknown bowler takes the lead or achieves something that's never been done before, instantly becoming an addition to the notable bowlers list.

Below, you will find a list of when some notable bowlers will be competing at the 2012 USBC Open Championships. This year, there are two live video cameras in the venue as well as three traditional point-and-click cameras, so family, fans and friends can tune in to see the action unfold in Baton Rouge. There also will be approximately 20 live stream broadcasts from the event that can be seen on BOWL.com or YouTube.com/BowlTV.
