The event in Feb. 2020 at the NFL’s largest stadium will mark the fourth edition of the PBR Global Cup. The home of the Dallas Cowboys hosted the first-ever edition of the event on U.S. soil in February 2019, welcoming more than 60,000 fans -- the largest crowd in Global Cup history. The event’s electrifying U.S. debut featured a down-to-the-wire, ride-for-ride bucking battle between the Team USA Eagles and Team Brazil, with the South American contingent ultimately winning their second consecutive Global Cup Championship.
The 2020 PBR Global Cup USA will once again feature six teams representing the five competing nations: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico and the United States. Team USA will again be represented by the Eagles and historic all-Native American Wolves.
Ahead of the 2020 event, however, PBR has announced several competitive changes, further intensifying the battle to be crowned the toughest nation on dirt. In past seasons, seven-man teams have gone head-to-head with their Top 12 scores counting towards each team’s event standing. Beginning in 2020, six-man contingents will compete against one another, with their Top 10 scores tallied.
Additionally, the teams will once again be led by a PBR-chosen coach; however, all teams will now also have an assistant coach, a position which was optional in 2019.
All riders and coaches set to compete at the 2020 WinStar World Casino and Resort PBR Global Cup USA, presented by Monster Energy, will be announced in the future.
The bull riding action begins on Saturday, February 15 at 6:45 p.m. CT, concluding on Sunday, February 16 at 1:45 p.m. CT. Each night, all six competing riders will attempt one bull each. Following the conclusion of the long round, each coach will select two riders to attempt an additional bull in the bonus round as selected in the nightly snake draft.
“In 2019, PBR made history inside AT&T Stadium by bringing fans one of the most exciting bull riding events in PBR's history and in giving an all Native American team the historic opportunity to compete on an international stage," said Sean Gleason, CEO, PBR. “We're excited to bring the PBR Global Cup again to Arlington, Texas, a community that's rich with avid PBR fans, and to continue our long-standing partnership with the Dallas Cowboys, who have been a great partner to PBR and instrumental in the staging in some largest events in sports.”
“PBR put on a tremendous global tournament last year that absolutely wowed a record crowd in attendance for the Global Cup USA last year,” said Stephen Jones, COO/EVP, Dallas Cowboys. “We look forward another highly successful tournament put on by PBR and held here in North Texas at AT&T Stadium in 2020.”
“We’re thrilled to welcome back the PBR Global Cup to Arlington’s world-class Entertainment District,” Arlington Mayor Jeff Williams said. “This larger than life, premiere bull riding competition captivates an international audience and showcases one of the country’s greatest sports and entertainment venues with AT&T Stadium.”
After 1.2 million viewers tuned into broadcast coverage of the event in 2019, CBS Sports will televise the 2020 PBR Global Cup USA on network television, which will also be brought to fans on RidePass, the PBR’s western sports digital network.
