"PBA USA vs. The World is a powerful showcase of the sport’s global growth and competitive depth," said Peter Murray, CEO of PBA. "We look forward to this event being broadcast on CBS and streaming on Paramount+ to the widest possible audience, highlighting the energy, talent, and international pride that define today’s PBA."
This fast-paced, team-based competition culminates in the awarding of the Hall of Fame Cup, the ultimate prize. The competition pits top American players against elite international stars. The format is a blend of singles, doubles, and team play, highlighted by the much-anticipated captain’s matchup between Team USA’s EJ Tackett and Team World’s Jason Belmonte of Australia. The international roster also features standout competitors representing Sweden, England, and Canada.
Much like golf’s Ryder Cup, which pits the USA against Europe, PBA USA vs. The World focuses on team and national competition. Players compete in singles, doubles, and team matches, with each contest contributing to the overall battle for international supremacy.
Fans can tune in live on CBS or stream on Paramount+ on April 4, 2026, at 2:00 PM ET, with additional content including highlights, behind-the-scenes access, and player storytelling available across the PBA’s digital and social platforms.
