LAS VEGAS (AP) — Trevor Brazile added team and tie-down roping world titles to his all-around crown Saturday night in the National Finals Rodeo to become the third Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association competitor win multiple triple crowns.
Brazile, the 14-time world champion from Decatur, Texas, earned $211,509 at the 10-round NFR — a record for a single rodeo by more than $65,000 — to pushed his season total to a record $507,921.
Brazile became the first multiple triple crown champion since Jim Shoulders (1956-58) and just the third in PRCA history. When Brazile completed his other triple in 2007, he won gold buckles in all-around, tie-down roping and steer roping. This year, he exchanged steer roping for team roping.
