A etapa da PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Unleash The Beast em Omaha, realizada nos dos 1 e 2 de maio, foi eletrizando e rendeu mais lenha na fogueira do mundial. Primeiro porque Cooper Davis mostrou que não está para brincadeira; segundo porque temos José Vitor Leme assumindo a liderança depois de duas lesões na temporada; e terceiro porque Dener Barbosa venceu mais uma etapa do 15/15 Bucking Battle para o Brasil e ainda quebrou uma invencibilidade.
Começando pela etapa, precisamos relembrar como foi o primeiro round. Das 31 montarias previstas na noite, apenas 10 competidores conseguiram parar. Melhor para José Vitor Leme que venceu o round com 89,25 pontos a bordo de Blue Crush — mais um round para o brasileiro. Cooper Davis encerrou com a segunda melhor nota da noite empatado com Derek Kolbaba nos 88,50 pontos — eles montaram em Zorro e Lil 2 Train.
No domingo, durante a semifinal, quem fez a melhor nota foi João Ricardo Vieira com 89,25 pontos em Slingin Tears. E novamente Cooper Davis encerrou empatado no segundo lugar, desta vez com Keyshawn Whitehorse com 88,75, parando os oito segundos em Danny Boy e Hanna Motors Power Dozer, respectivamente.
Mas o campeão mundial de 2016 estava com fome de vitória e garantiu a fivela da etapa ao parar em Trail of Tears com 92,25 pontos, a maior da rodada final, encerrando com 269,50 pontos. Davis agora é o terceiro colocado no ranking, com 696,50 pontos.
Novo líder
José Vitor Leme assumiu a liderança do mundial depois de encerrar a etapa com 267,75 pontos na somatória do evento. O resultado veio depois de o atual campeão mundial fazer 91,75 pontos em I’m Legit Too no round final. Leme passa Kaique Pacheco, agora com 792,00 pontos no ranking.
15/15 Bucking Battle
Esta foi a sexta edição da premiação nesta temporada. E cinco delas foram conquistadas pelos brasileiros. Dener Barbosa está nesta lista e saiu de Omaha com o título e a quebra da invencibilidade de 16 saídas invictas de Marquis Metal Works Red Clark, sendo a primeira parada a bordo do touro.
Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour
Em Corpus Christi a vitória foi do brasileiro Caic Cássio, em sua primeira participação na Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour. O cowboy fez três paradas e garantiu (87,00 / 87,00 / 86,50) a fivela de campeão com 260,50 pontos.
