Karen Corr had a slightly harder task in her victory against Helena Thornfeldt. Thornfeldt jumped out to an early lead only to fall victim to a few very costly mistakes near the middle of the set to allow Corr to the table. Corr, the only woman ever to sweep an entire season on the WPBA tour, wasted no time as she overcame some early mistakes to take control of the set. Just as she was about to close out the set, she stumbled by over shooting position on the seven ball. She elected to play safe and allow Thornfeldt to the table one more time. Thornfeldt turned that shot into one more win with an incredible jumpshot combination, but she ultimately didn't have what it took to turn the shot into a victory as Corr claimed the set on a costly mistake from Thornfeldt in the following game.
