The same lane pattern will be used for the 2025 Greater Iowa Bowling Association 11thFrame.com Open at Cherry Lanes inside the Diamond Jo Casino in Dubuque, Iowa Aug. 15-17 as was used for the 2022, 2023 and 2024 tournaments.

The lane pattern is 37 feet with 24.63 mL of oil and pattern ratios by volume of 1.11-1 on the left and 1.66-1 on the right. The oil could be different, depending on what Cherry Lanes is using. The pattern is attached to this story. 

The weekend again will feature a Friday sweeper, and the tournament Saturday and Sunday will feature a maximum field of 156 entries that sold out within a few days of entries opening. However, there is a waiting list and many people typically get into the event off of the waiting list.

Emil Williams' BowlstreamTV will be webcasting the tournament.

Cam Crowe won the 2024 11thFrame.com Open.
