Three world champions advanced out of the third bracket at the San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo, but they squeaked into the semifinals by finishing fourth in their respective disciplines.

Reigning world champion team ropers Turtle Powell and Jhett Johnson and three-time world champion barrel racer Sherry Cervi moved on in the tournament-style format. Powell and Johnson placed in just one of three go-rounds, but that second-place finish on Wednesday night was worth $1,474. Cervi earned $1,965.

Congratulations to all the semifinalists.
