Mika Koivuniemi was preparing himself into finals in squad at 4 pm. Preparing went very well, because Koivuniemi won the squad by 1451. With his result Mika is now second just behind of Osku Palermaa. - I'm pretty satisfied for this squad. I found a ball yesterday evening, which worked perfectly. I bowled with it only few shots, as I want to save it till finals. Today I tried something else and also a way to release a ball right. Now I have more alternatives for tomorrow. Mika was interviewed by Pekka Korpi/SKL.

Other qualified of this squad was only Danish Carsten Hansen with result 1411. Kristoffer Hagelberg and Martin Paulsson from Sweden got both 1345, which is just close of the cut. Estimated cut is now 1347.
