With just over three weeks left in the 2010 rodeo season, two-time WPRA Barrel Racing World Champion Sherry Cervi is closing in on another career milestone. As of Sept. 7, Cervi is $14,332 from setting a new WPRA record for most money won prior to the Wrangler NFR. 2008 World Champion Lindsay Sears holds the record set the same year she won her world title with a total of $184,567.
Recently Sears and Cervi finished 1-2, respectively, in the average at the Ellensburg (Wash.) Rodeo, the final stop on the 2010 Wrangler Million Dollar Tour. With rodeos like Puyallup, Wash., Pendleton, Ore., Albuquerque, N.M., and Omaha, Neb., Cervi could very well re-write the record books.
Back in 1999, Cervi held this same record with $130,996 before Sears broke it in 2008.
