The 2025 PBA Sweden Scorpion Open in Eskilstuna ended with a dramatic finish as Iceland’s Arnar Jonsson came back from behind to take the title. In a tight three-game final, Jonsson defeated Norway’s Henrik Nordang Larsen with a total score of 557–554.


Larsen started strong, winning the first two games 189–171 and 196–185. But Jonsson refused to give up. He fought back in the third game, shooting 201 to Larsen’s 169. In the final frame, Jonsson needed two strikes to win—and he delivered both under pressure.



With the victory, Jonsson earns an international invitation to the 2026 PBA World Series of Bowling, including entry fee, and a spot in the final of the 2025 Storm Lucky Larsen Masters.


England’s Dan Harding finished third, losing to Jonsson in the semifinal. Norway’s Viktor Brentebråten Mortensen ended fourth after falling to his compatriot Larsen.
