LAS VEGAS – The 2024 ProRodeo Rookies of the Year were recognized during Tuesday’s sixth round of the National Finals Rodeo, and Weston Timberman’s smile shined inside the Thomas & Mack Center.

He earned the bareback riding rookie title this season long before he arrived in town to compete at ProRodeo’s championship. On opening night, he proved his place among the sport’s elite by winning the round. He placed again in Sunday’s fourth round, then earned his third check in six nights Tuesday.

Timberman rode Diamond G Rodeo’s Good Girl for 86 points to finish sixth on Night 6, pushing his NFR earnings to $57,814. He has a cumulative score of 507.5 points and is fifth in the aggregate race. If he were to hold that position through the final four nights of the campaign, he will add a bonus of $29,340.

He is seventh in the world standings with $211,914, which is a pretty salty way to continue his inaugural season in ProRodeo.
