What It Means For The Field
The purse itself is worth noting: breakaway roping is running for the same $166,667 as every other event, round for round, putting the event on equal footing with one of ProRodeo’s highest-profile women’s disciplines. Conner already knows what a big Sioux Falls weekend is worth—she was second here in 2025 for $24,000, a run she’s said moved her to No. 2 in the world faster than her trip to the National Finals Breakaway Roping did. Taylor Munsell and Beau Peterson, 11th and 12th in Playoff Series points, are both on the outside looking in.
