Timeline
Richard A. Ritger (November 8, 1938 – August 27, 2020) was a right-handed ten-pin bowler in the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA), who spent his later years as a bowling instructor and proprietor of Dick Ritger's Bowling Camp.
Known for his smooth stroker delivery, he is one of only 17 players in history to have won at least 20 career PBA Tour titles.
Ritger grew up in River Falls, Wisconsin.
He joined the PBA Tour in 1964, and won his first two PBA titles in successive weeks in 1966.
Ritger also won two titles in the Classic Division at the National USBC Championships, in Team (1967) and All-Events (1977).
A gentleman on the lanes and off, Ritger won the PBA's Steve Nagy Sportsmanship award on two occasions.
He won multiple titles in five different seasons on tour, including three titles each in the 1969, 1973 and 1974 seasons.
Ritger's best chance at a major title came in 1970, when he made the televised final of the Tournament of Champions and shot 268 in the final match.
But he was on the wrong end of 26-time titlist Don Johnson's legendary 299 game.
He also finished runner-up in the 1972 PBA National Championship and 1979 Tournament of Champions.
His status among the all-time greats was solidified with his election to the PBA Hall of Fame in 1978.
He won his 20th and final PBA title in 1979.
In the 1980s, Ritger started a bowling pro shop business and went into the instructional field, working as a coach for AMF and his own Dick Ritger's Bowling Camps.
He became recognized as one of the most effective bowling instructors in the world, running over 500 clinics in 24 countries covering five continents.
Already a member of the USBC Hall of Fame in the Performance category, Ritger was the first person inducted into the USBC's new Bowling Coaches Hall of Fame in June, 2008.
Ritger began bowling regularly at age 9 in his family's 10-lane center in Hartford, Wisconsin.
In his teens, he often competed in adult leagues.
He graduated from the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse with a double major in Physical Education and Recreation.
Ritger died in his home on August 27, 2020, at the age of 81.
He is survived by Judy Ritger (his wife of 60 years), three children, 13 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
