Rookie Ryder Wright has been nothing short of dominant to begin his first career NFR.
Wright took the first three rounds with a score of 87.50 in round 1, 86.00 in round two, and an 86.50 point ride in the third round.
The first three round wins have skyrocketed Wright’s world standings jumping him up to second in the world after entering the NFR at 14th.
After his third-round win, Ryder felt confident he was going to keep the momentum rolling.
“I’m feeling awesome, and really confident in my riding,” Wright said. “I’m just taking it one horse at a time, and am going to keep it rolling.”
See if Ryder can win his fourth consecutive round tonight at 8:00 PM EST as the “40 Nights of NFR” continue on The Cowboy Channel with the fourth round of the 2016 NFR.
