It’s pretty rare that we see a bull rider dominate the way Austin Richardson did in Albany, New York, to close out 2023. Plus, a three-way tie for a round win, another rookie throws his hat into the ring, and more. Miss a moment of the action this weekend? Here’s what happened around the PBR.

On the Unleash The Beast…

In Albany, Austin Richardson didn’t just win the event. He won all three rounds – all three rounds! – en route to his first premier series win since April 2022. Not too bad for a weekend of work!

In Round 1, Richardson tied for the round with Brady Oleson and Kaiden Loud…

…who is the next up-and-comer in an incredible rookie class to announce that he’s here to win.

In the Touring Pro Division…

Cort McFadden went 2-for-2 to win the final PBR Stockyards Showcase of 2023.
