What is an "approach"?
In bowling, an approach is an area on the lane where the player takes a few steps before releasing the ball. It is usually a smooth, flat section where the player gathers their momentum and prepares to make the throw. The approach typically starts from a marked line or spot and leads up to the foul line, beyond which the ball must be released. The way a player moves along the approach is important for balance and accuracy in delivering the ball to the pins.
Example
The approach was freshly oiled before the league competition.
The bowler slipped on the approach, causing a foul.
