Saldanha's perfect performance is the first, and so far, only game where a perfect game has been achieved in the finals of a series, discouting the 30th Birthday Championship. Notably, this is the only known occasion of a player getting the max solutions in every round without getting the best solutions — in Round 4, Saldanha still scored the max of 7 points with his declared target of 893, but he failed to find the closest possible target of 891.
