When you think of hazard-free sports, you probably wouldn’t fathom bull riding. Probably that’s what would make Ky Hamilton’s victory at the 2023 PRCA World Championship all the sweeter. The inexorable juggernaut Hamilton is also the third-ever Australian to win the world title. Ky finished 2022 fourth in the bull riding world standings, and he’s been on a roll this year as well. He also achieved a new personal record with a remarkable $595,414 finish to the season.

Hamilton’s performance has been exceptional and even the PRCA had to doff their hats to the wunderkind cowboy. Only hours ago, Ky sustained intense injuries and was carried out on a stretcher. However, he made a comeback in the round after a green flag from the authorities and made the most of the chance.

Iconic ride: From concussion to glory in 24 hours

In an Instagram post, the official PRCA account shared Hamilton’s latest feat. Hamilton’s tenacity reached its zenith in Round 7, where he claimed victory with an impressive 88-point ride on Alberta Prime Devil’s Advocate. In a breathtaking display of fortitude, Hamilton covered two rank bulls within 24 hours, following a concussion-inducing encounter in Round 5. His resilience and skill not only left the crowd on their feet but also garnered him a well-deserved payday of $114,654.

“Nothing was going to stop Ky Hamilton!“, reads the Insta post. The crowd held its breath after the horrific accident, but Hamilton’s resilience prevailed. Within 16 hours, he not only returned to the arena but clinched third place in Round 6 with an 85.5-point ride on Love The Grind’s Bouchon.

Hamilton’s journey from adversity to triumph will be remembered as a testament to the indomitable spirit of rodeo athletes. As the cheers echo and the dust settles, Hamilton stands tall as the 2023 PRCA Bull Riding World Champion, a title he earned through grit, skill, and an unwavering passion for the sport. His ardent pantheon chimed in as well.
