Seeded third, Mika Koivuniemi moved up the step-ladder finals by defeating Mike Fagan 214-150 and Sean Rash 258-180 to reach the finals.

In the finals against Brad Angelo, Koivuniemi, working on a double needed a strike and 9 pin count in the tenth frame to lockout Angelo. He struck in the first ball but got a 6 pin count on the next ball and 3 pins on the fill ball to finish with a 232 game.

Angelo needed a double and 8 pin count in the 10th frame and he came through in the clutch for a 233 game and his second PBA title.
