With three events in the books so far this season, Sean Rash sits in the lead in the PBA Playoffs points list as we head into Big February.
Rash holds the top spot after winning the PBA Oklahoma Open a couple weeks ago and finishing seventh last week at the PBA Jonesboro Open.
Kyle Troup, who won in Jonesboro, Arkansas, sits in second, while first-week winner Tommy Jones is third. Chris Barnes and Ryan Ciminelli round out the top five.
There's still a long way to go this season to determine the 24 players who will advance into the PBA Playoffs, which begin in April and again award a $100,000 first-place prize.
The upcoming majors will play a massive role in determining who qualifies. In the next three weeks alone, three major titles will be awarded at the PBA Tournament of Champions, PBA Players Championship and U.S. Open.
The field for the PBA Playoffs won't be determined until after the USBC Masters, which takes place the end of March.
