Bareback Riding

Bradlee Miller dominated the Super Series, winning the first two rounds. Keenan Hayes stepped in to claim Round 3, with the highest-marked ride of the Series.

While Miller took the win of the series, he did have a moment in Round 3 that will be remembered for a long time. Shortly after he nodded his head, it appeared that his cinch broke on his riggin and he was sent airborne completely by surprise. Luckily, he was not injured and got a pretty good laugh out of the situation.

2. Keenan Hayes, $5,500
3. Jayco Roper, $4,250
4. Jacob Lees, $3,000

Bull Riding

Cooper James and Bryce Jensen each earned a round win, in a challenging Super Series. Round 2 went without a single qualified ride, and in Round 3, Jensen was the only cowboy to earn a score.

Jensen earned the total pot of $7,500 in Round 3, which will count towards the World Standings, but not for RODEOHOUSTON advancement purposes. Ground money in bull riding is disregarded in calculating those earnings.
