# PWBA Bowling Tour: 2024 season

While some locations have changed, the 2024 Professional Women's Bowling Association (PWBA) Tour season matched the 2023 season with 12 title events scheduled in eight cities. These include eight standard singles title events, three major title events, and one mixed doubles event. Final rounds of the season's three majors (USBC Queens, U.S. Women's Open and PWBA Tour Championship) are broadcast nationally on CBS Sports Network. All other events are broadcast on BowlTV, the USBC’s YouTube channel.
Two of the Tour stops featured three events each. The PWBA Classic Series – Nashville had two open events, with a third event that started with only the top 24 in qualifying from the previous two events. The PWBA Tour Championship Week also began with two standard, open events. The third event, the PWBA Tour Championship major, had a 24-player starting field composed of all the season’s title winners, plus the top season points-earners among non-winners.
The 2024 season also saw the first-ever mixed trios event, held July 31-August 2 in Jonesboro, Arkansas. The event featured trio teams pairing PBA, PBA50 and PWBA players.
