Through two of three Playoff Semifinals in Austin, Tegan Smith is the man to beat in the saddle bronc riding and we will see him in Saturday’s eight-man Championship Round.
Smith was 90 points on Andrews Rodeo’s All or Nothin, the highest marked ride of the rodeo so far.
“I was ready as soon as I seen the draw, that horse got me down in the fifth round of the (National) Finals, I needed that,” he said.
In Austin, the Top 8 competitors out of all 24 Playoff Semifinal qualifiers advance, regardless of where they finish in their own performance.
You can watch the final Playoff Semifinal and the Championship Round of Rodeo Austin Friday and Saturday only on The Cowboy Channel and The Cowboy Channel+.
