Four players have bowled 300 twice on television in title events, but before any of them achieved that feat, two players rolled two 300 games in other circumstances.

Wes Malott bowled 300 twice during the 2009 King of Bowling exhibition. Ryan Shafer bowled a recognized 300 game (the 20th in PBA history) during the 2007 Pepsi Championship and shot his second perfect game at the 2011 GEICO PBA Team Shootout.

Sean Rash was the first player to bowl two televised 300s in title events, doing so in the 2014 PBA Wolf Open (23rd ever) and 2015 PBA Tournament of Champions (25th).

François Lavoie was perfect in the 2016 U.S. Open (26th) and became the second player with two televised 300s in the 2020 PBA Playoffs (29th), defeating Rash to tie Rash.

Chris Via was the first player to bowl two televised perfect games in the same season, bowling 300 in the 2021 PBA Players Championship East Region Finals (30th) and the 2021 PBA Tour Finals (32nd).

Jason Belmonte holds the record for longest time between televised 300s, shooting his first in the 2012 PBA World Championship (21st) and his second in the 2022 PBA Tour Finals (34th).
