The Wrangler National Finals presented by Teton Ridge, kicked off Round 6 in a very unique way. Round 6 took place at 10 A.M. PST and in doing so, they had a semi-fan-less arena with only media and family members present. 

Jacob Lees earned his first-ever NFR go-round win, but unfortunately for him, he had to share the win. Tanner Aus jumped to the top spot with his re-ride option. 

Lees shared the round win with his 87-point ride on Sankey Pro Rodeo and Phenom Genetics' "Bronc Riding Nation". Aus earned his way into the winner's circle on his 87-point ride on Flying U Rodeo's "Little Red Hawk."

Mason Clements, Jayco Roper, and Clayton Biglow also tied for third place. Each with an 86-point bronc ride. Clements rode for 86 points on Stace Smith Pro Rodeo's "Risky Business". Roper rode J Bar J's "Straight Stick" for 86 points. Biglow rode for an 86-point ride on Sankey Pro Rodeo and Phenom Genetics' "Shouting Shoes."
