Jakob Butturff

Jakob Butturff (born April 28, 1994) is a left-handed American ten-pin bowler from Chandler, Arizona and a member of the Professional Bowlers Association. He competes in events on the PBA Tour and in global events as a member of Team USA. He has won eight national PBA Tour titles (including one major) and 27 PBA Regional Tour titles. Jakob also rolled the 28th of the PBA Tour's 35 televised 300 games.

Butturff is a pro staff member for the Ebonite division of Brunswick. He is also sponsored by Vise Grips.

Butturff finished first at the 2017 Team USA Trials, and has been a Team USA member from 2017 through 2019. He won a team gold medal at the 2017 World Bowling Championships.

Butturff and his Team USA teammates won the 2019 Weber Cup over Team Europe. At the 2019 Pan American Games in Peru, Butturff and Team USA teammate Nick Pate earned a gold medal in doubles. During qualifying for this event, Jakob broke the Pan American Games record for a six-game block with a score of 1,516. In the next six-game block, he broke his own record with a 1,538 score. He also earned a bronze medal in the singles event.

Butturff was part of the rotating four-person team (with A. J. Johnson, Andrew Anderson and Kristopher Prather) that won the trios gold medal for Team USA at the 2021 International Bowling Federation (IBF) Super World Championships in Dubai.

Butturff became a PBA member in 2015, bowling primarily on the PBA Regional circuit that season. In his seven national events during 2015, he cashed four times and made three match play rounds.

Butturff won his first PBA Tour title in the 2016 PBA Xtra Frame Lubbock Sports Southwest Open. In October that same year, he won the PBA Xtra Frame Las Vegas Open for his second title.

While he had no PBA Tour victories in the 2017 season, Butturff did win the title at the QubicaAMF World Cup on November 11 in Hermosillo, Mexico. Butturff had a chance to win his first major championship at the 2017 U.S. Open. He qualified as the #1 seed, leading his next-closest competitor by an astounding 617 pins, but he lost the televised championship match to Rhino Page, 256–222.
