FORT WORTH, Texas – As the event was down to one eligible athlete in the Triple Crown of Rodeo (TCR) at the Dec. 18 Cowtown Christmas Championship Rodeo, breakaway roping had the fans inside the Cowtown Coliseum on the edge of their seats. Tacy Kay Webb, the 24-year-old ICU Nurse was the undeniable star of the rodeo, delivering what would be the most groundbreaking performance of the event. As only one of two athletes remaining TCR eligible in the final round of competition, her 2.49-second effort elevated her to a $12,500 payday. For Webb, fresh off her win at July’s Days of ’47 Cowboy Games and Rodeo, the event marked her second consecutive WCRA Major, putting her in contention to be a millionaire. If Webb triumphs at May’s Rodeo Corpus Christi, she will be the first victor of the WCRA Triple Crown of Rodeo $1 Million Bonus.
