PRCA: Milestones expected from Fred Whitfield, Jake Barnes, Royce Ford, Wesley Silcox, Cory Petska, Ryan Jarrett

Before Trevor Brazile becomes ProRodeo’s first $4 million cowboy sometime this summer – he’s $90,418 away – there are lots of other milestones to watch for much nearer on the horizon.

• Eight-time World Champion Fred Whitfield is just $16,428 away from becoming the sport’s third $3 million cowboy, joining Brazile and Billy Etbauer.

• Seven-time World Champion Team Roping Header Jake Barnes needs just $40,080 to become the 17th PRCA contestant to surpass $2 million in career earnings and join his long time partner Clay O’Brien Cooper.

• There are a handful of guys who are days or weeks away from reaching the $1 million plateau, following J.W. Harris who made it there at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Bareback rider Royce Ford is the closest, standing just $4,094 away from reaching seven figures, followed by bull rider Wesley Silcox ($4,149), team roper Cory Petska ($6,709) and steer wrestler/tie-down roper Ryan Jarrett ($13,901).
