Guiton Wins Round 2 While Crimber Keeps Pace in PBR World Finals – Eliminations

Guiton Wins First Career World Finals Round, Goes to Lead in Eliminations
Clay Guiton continued his surge up the PBR World Standings on Friday night by riding Eyes on Me for 91.25 points to get the Round 2 win in Fort Worth. With it, he is now No. 5 in the World, up from No. 11 at the beginning of the World Finals and No. 30 in late March.
“It just boosts your confidence to know you’re a Top 5 guy in the world, but that’s where I know I’m supposed to be,” Guiton said. “I know I should be there, and that’s where I’ve been thinking I should be all year.”
Guiton is 2-for-2 so far in PBR World Finals – Eliminations and leads the Average with 178 points on two. The 19-year-old rode 50 percent of his bulls in 2025 and is confident heading into Round 3.
“At this point, I really don’t care (what I draw),” Guiton said. “I feel like they could load any of them and I could ride ‘em right now.”
