Kaique Pacheco Nampa 2021 Recap
Kaique Pacheco went 3 for 3, the only rider to do so en route to his series leading fourth event win (Arcadia, Glendale, Louisville, Nampa) to date. Pacheco finished fourth in round 1, and won the event championship round, his fifth round win of the year. Kaique has ridden a series leading 20 bulls (20 for 32 or 62.5%), 4 of which have come in event championship rounds which also leads the series. Pacheco’s career-high for event wins is five, which he accomplished during his 2018 World Championship run. He did not record his fourth event win that season until September 23, 2018. Kaique is now halfway toward the PBR single-season record for event wins (8). Two-time World Champion Justin McBride won eight events during his 2007 championship season.
Kaique was fifth going into the final round where he selected Chiseled in the championship round draft and for the second week in a row he rode him to victory.
