The Turning Stone Classic XII is now down to just twelve players.
On the winners side, Mika Immonen will face Mario Morra and Ralf Souquet will take on Shane Van Boening. On the one loss side, it will be Shawn Putnam vs Oscar Dominguez, Charlie Bryant vs Thorsten Hohmann, Stevie Moore vs Dennis Hatch and Daryl Peach vs Louis Ulrich.
Immonen could be the man to beat in this one. After a close 9-8 match with Shawn Putnam, Immonen came back with lopsided wins over both Darren Appleton and Thorsten Hohmann on Saturday. Morra escaped with a 9-7 win over Oscar Dominguez, but will be severely tested by Immonen on Sunday.
Van Boening has not had an easy draw and his last three matches were all close. He defeated Johnny Archer, Mike Davis and Dennis Hatch by a combined margin of five racks. Souquet has not had a real close match all week, although his last two wins over Jeremy Sossei and Louis Ulrich were both by three games each.
On the one loss side, the final female player was eliminated when Allison Fisher lost to Shawn Putnam. Fisher settled for 13th place in this event. Sarah Rousey took 17th place after losses to Oscar Dominguez and Stevie Moore.
