Arturo Quintero



    BIOGRAPHY

    I was born in Mexico City and started bowling at the age of 8. It was simply love at first sight. I have been playing at the highest level since I was 14 years old and I was nicknamed El Niño de Oro which means, The Gold Kid. I earned that name when I bowled a perfect game in Arabia in 2001 to earn 1 Kilo of Gold. The most important things in my life are God and my family but bowling is my passion. I have the privilege to be able to do that for a living. I like Latin music, my favorite food is the Brazilian Picaña. When I’m not bowling, I like boxing and skateboarding. However, I think that if I hadn't been a professional bowler, I would have been an architect.

    I consider myself a fun and respectful person towards others and will always work to live up to the values that my parents instilled in me. I will always fight to achieve my goals. I always keep trying, no matter how many times I may fail. When you keep trying, you always open an opportunity that may help you reach all your dreams.
