In 2023, Texan Jackie Crawford (Stephenville, Texas)captured her second Women’s Rodeo World Championship title, making her the richest female athlete in the WCRA (World Champions Rodeo Alliance). Crawford claimed the 2023 WRWC Event Heeling Championship, adding another $60,000 to her career earnings of more than $203,000 in the WCRA, the WRWC’s sister organization. In 2020, Crawford became the inaugural WRWC All-Around Cowgirl, capturing the title at seven months pregnant.
Last year, four athletes from Stephenville, Texas, the Cowboy Capital of the World, won 2023 event championships, earning nearly $300,000 combined.
Crawford celebrated with the 2023 All-Around Cowgirl title, and her team roping partner, Martha Angelone, and barrel racer Cheyenne Wimberley, both also rode their way to the winner’s circle. The quartet was completed by Kelsie Domer who won the 2023 Breakaway Roping Championship. Domer secured her place in the event through the last chance qualifier, narrowly missing out on the first-place spot by one-one-hundredth of a second. During the 2023 championship round, she performed a groundbreaking run, breaking away from her saddle horn in an impressive 2.16 seconds, and winning the event with a clean run of 4.47 seconds. Domer walked away from the event with her newborn daughter, Oaklynn, and $61,000 in prize money.
