Jason Belmonte starts World Youth Championships with victory in Singles

Jason Belmonte of Australia rolled 1316 to win the first gold medal of the 8th World Youth Championships in the boy's singles competition. A scoring correction Tuesday resulted in Junior Team USA's David O'Sullivan earning the bronze medal in the boys singles event at the World Youth Championships in Guam. O'Sullivan, 19, pointed out himself that he had been inadvertently credited with six additional pins in his second game, which was lowered from 208 to 202. The score adjustment dropped his total to 1241 and into third place for the bronze medal. Ireland's Paul Scott was awarded the silver for his 1246 total.
