In 2020, Ty Breuer’s average ride score was a career-best 82.23 and he enters his sixth NFR in 14th place in the bareback riding world standings.
The North Dakota cowboy has not rodeoed since the Cache County Fair and Rodeo in Utah on Aug. 8, but he won plenty of money early in the season to propel him to another National Finals and that started in San Antonio. Breuer finished second there, placing in three rounds and notching two 89-point rides. Overall, he won more than $18,000 in the Alamo City.

During the Fourth of July run, Breuer also placed in Mobridge, South Dakota and Kildeer, North Dakota, winning $3,000 combined at those two rodeos. Less than a week later, he finished second at the Dinosaur Roundup in Vernal, Utah to win $2,888. Breuer won more than $16,000 in the month of July.
