Hwang posted the second highest six-game series of the championships in the men senior team event when he totaled 1509 to lead his team to the silver medal en route to secure the gold medal in All Events with 4234 pinfall total and an average of 235.22 over 18 games.

Doubles gold medalist Brenton Davy, Australia, took the bronze medal with 4201 (233.39).

Two-time World Cup winner Baker secured the gold medal in the women senior division with a 1407 series in the team event. The Doubles and Team gold medalist felled 3987 pins and averaged 221.50 for her 18 games. Honami Yanagawa, Japan, earned her fourth medal in as many events when she checked in with 3932 (218.44) to secure the silver medal. Julie Hird, Australia, took the bronze with 3926 (218.11).

Singles and Team champion Iwai won his third gold medal of the championships in the men's grand senior division with 4438 including 5 pins handicap each game and an average (scratch) of 241.56.
