National Finals Rodeo

Tandem nearing end of successful string

Jake Barnes left the starting box a hair too quickly Wednesday night, and it cost him and roping partner Clay O’Brien Cooper a five-second penalty.

THE LATEST
NFR SEVENTH GO-ROUND SUMMARY

Bareback rider Bobby Mote tied the Thomas & Mack Center record for the second time this week and took over the lead in the world standings Wednesday night with his third go-round win in seven rounds of the National Finals Rodeo.

NFR SIXTH GO-ROUND SUMMARY

Trevor Brazile needed little more than half of the Nationals Finals Rodeo to clinch his sixth all-around world championship in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association.

Family tradition worth several bucks

Kaycee Feild never got to see his father, Lewis Feild, win the first of his three bareback world championships. He missed the second one, too, and certainly doesn’t remember much about the third.

Injuries are mere nuisance to riders

Bull rider Kanin Asay’s encounter with a rodeo bull five months ago left him with a ruptured spleen, torn right ear and a broken rib.

THIRD GO-ROUND SUMMARY

If anyone can read a horse, it’s Cody Ohl.
