Jason Couch

Jason Couch

Jason Couch is one of the top bowlers on the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) tour. The left-hander was born on November 8, 1969, and currently resides in Clermont, Florida.

PBA career

Since joining the PBA Tour in 1991, Couch has racked up 15 titles, including four major championships. Jason's first title came at the 1993 Tums Classic, defeating Brian Voss. Later that year he won his first major title at the 1993 Touring Players Championship. He then pulled off an historic "three-peat" in the Tournament of Champions, winning the event in 1999, 2000 and 2002. (The event was not contested in 2001 because the PBA switched from a calendar year to a seasonal format.)

Couch is currently 12th on the PBA's all-time money list with almost $1.6 million in career earnings. He had season-ending knee surgery in 2007 and had to defer his 2007-08 exemption to 2008-09.
