2025 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo Day 6

Round 6 – December 9, 2025

The 67th annual Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas, Nevada has concluded Round 6 of 10, featuring a total purse of $17.5 million. Each go-round in each of the seven events pays $36,667.95 to first place, with payouts through sixth worth $5,914.19.

The coveted “Best on 10,” known as the NFR Average, is now coming into play. First place in the average pays $94,035.54, down to eighth place earning $8,871.28—making consistency a necessity on the road to a world title.

As Chris LeDoux sang “It’s the Finals. The NFR—the series of the sport, hey rookie can you take 10 head, have you got the heart”.

Among Indian Country standouts are 12-time NFR qualifier Navajo cowboy Derrick Begay, along with Cherokee athletes Jayco Roper and Chance Howard. Zach Dallas represents the Oglala Lakota, and the lovely Bailey Bates of the Navajo Nation will compete later in December at the National Finals Breakaway Roping.

We bring you complete round results, average standings, and world title updates, plus interviews with the Round 6 winners, Tanner Tomlinson, Travis Graves, Statler Wright and Kassie Mowry, now.
