2X World Champion Patrick Smith is also a 2X Dodge City champion. He first won it with Trevor Brazile and again most recently with Kaleb Driggers.
He’s back this year to get a third win in Dodge, this time with young gun Tanner Tomlinson.
“He ropes great. I’m excited about roping with him and being a part of his career kicking off, because he’s going to be around a lot longer than I am,” says Smith with a laugh. “Things are starting to click for us, and I think it’s looking better all the time.”
Tomlinson and Smith placed eighth in the first go in Dodge City with a time of 5.8 seconds, and then last night they stopped the clock at 4.6 to join Levi Simpson and Tyler Worley at fourth on the leaderboard in the second round. They are currently sitting second overall at the rodeo with a total of 10.4 seconds on two head, just one-tenth of second off leaders Clay Smith and Jade Corkill.
It’s pretty safe to say we will see these two back for the short round on Sunday!
Watch Dodge City LIVE Saturday and Sunday at 8:30 PM ET on The Cowboy Channel or Cowboy Channel+ app.
