He continued to shine, winning the McDermott Masters 9-Ball Championship and later the 1988 PBA World 9-Ball Championship, in a memorable final against Mike Sigel. His extraordinary skill, endurance, patience, and tenacity set him apart, earning him the title of The National Billiard News Player of the Year in 1984.

In 1996, Earl made history by being the first player to run 10 consecutive racks in a tournament at the PCA $1,000,000 Challenge, winning the largest cash prize to date.
