Mike Aulby set a record for winning the most money at this stage of the PBA season by capturing the $150,000 Old Spice Classic at Garden City Bowl. He defeated Amleto Monacelli, 233-220, in the title game to win the $27,000 first prize and upped his season's winnings to $114,220, breaking a record set by Earl Anthony in 1981. Aulby waited until Don Genalo knocked out Tony Cariello, a former world amateur champion in his first full professional year on the Tour, 221-169. Genalo, competing in front of a partisan hometown crowd, couldn't keep up his string against Charlie Tapp, however, going down to defeat, 235-216. Tapp lost his game completely against Monacelli, once picking up the wrong ball and suffering four open frames in a 190-163 loss, propelling Monacelli into the title game. Aulby opened with a four-bagger and the popular Venezuelan drew to within three pins midway in the game when he tripled in the fifth through seventh frames to make it 169-166. But Aulby responded with two of three closing strikes to cement the first title.
