The American Contender Finals is scheduled for Friday and will lead up to Championship Saturday, where the best athletes in the world will compete for up to $1 million.
In The American Contender Finals, the Top 5 athletes in each discipline from each Regional Finals are riding for a shot to advance to The American Rodeo. Winning athletes are guaranteed a share of the $360,000 prize money.
The American Rodeo Championship, taking place on Saturday, is a winner-take-all showdown at Globe Life Field where only Contender athletes are eligible to win the $1 million bonus.
