Only one round remains in PBR World Finals – Eliminations after a Saturday night in Cowtown that delivered two perfect riders and two much-needed qualified rides.

Guiton, Leme Each Start 3-for-3

Last year, Kaiden Loud won PBR World Finals – Eliminations as the only one to make the whistle the three times. This year, there are two cowboys who have already covered three — Clay Guiton and Jose Vitor Leme.

On Saturday night in Fort Worth, Guiton collected 26 UTB points with 87.25 on Let’s Roll, but more importantly he remained in the Aggregate lead. The 19-year-old has totaled 265.25 points so far at the PBR World Finals.

“This is a lot of fun, I’ve been saying all week, I’ve been waiting for this my whole life and I gotta make it count now,” he said.

Leme, on the other hand, was 89.25 for second in Round 3, his best finish so far in the 2025 World Finals. He is second in Eliminations with 261.75 points while John Crimber, who is the best on two, sits third with 177.25 points.

Austin Richardson Gets on the Board in Style

Austin Richardson bucked off of his first two bulls, but instantly shot to eighth place in Eliminations thanks to 90.75 aboard Rank Frank on Saturday. The ride also took him from No. 16 to No. 12 in the World Standings.

It was Richardson’s second 90+ Point Ride of the UTB season and the second one overall at the 2025 World Finals.

No. 1 Dalton Kasel and No. 2 Brady Fielder Break Their Droughts

The Top 2 bull riders entering the World Finals combined to start 0-for-4, but both changed their fortunes on Saturday to remain firmly as No. 1 and 2.

Kasel was the final rider out in Round 3 and rode The Kraken for 88.75 points to grab third in the round and earn 44 UTB points.

Fielder, who entered the World Finals with the top riding percentage in the PBR, made an 86-point ride on Bruno. Fielder only had two stretches this season where he bucked off three bulls in a row.

Meanwhile, No. 3 John Crimber, who stated 2-for-2, did not make a qualified ride in Round 3.

Quick Draw

Four of the Top 5 riders in the PBR World Finals – Eliminations are 20-years-old or younger.
