09/18/07
Tom Baker, King, N.C., has repeated as Kegel Bowler of the Month for August. The BWAA Bowler of the Month Committee's July award-winner won his eighth PBA Senior Tour title by defeating David Ozio, 256-213, in the Dick Weber Invitational title match.
Baker's win in the final event in the 2007 PBA Senior Tour season, not only clinched the award for the second month in a row, but earned him BOM honors for the sixth time in the past four years.
The victory was especially significant because Baker and Ozio are the top contenders in the PBA Senior Player of the Year battle.
Other significant vote-getters were Shannon O'Keefe, who led the USBC U.S. Women's Open qualifying after 32 games with a 214 average on four different PBA conditions, and Michelle Feldman, a former pro who led the field of 16 women who qualified for this fall's PBA Women's Series, totaling 6,790 pins for 32 games over four days on four different PBA oil patterns.
