With six rounds complete and four still to rope, the final night of the Kimes Ranch Million Dollar Breakaway is starting to come into focus with $330,000 left to be paid in the go-rounds and a whopping $175,000 in the average.

The math matters here—both in round money still available and in how the average could reshuffle payouts.

Josie Conner has surged to the top of the earnings board behind three round wins, while Maddy Deerman-Jacobs has quietly built the best average so far through consistency rather than headlines. Behind Deerman is Cheyanne McCartney and Aspen Miller, with four rounds still left to reshape the average game.

Meanwhile, round winners like Danielle Lowman and Sarah Angelone have proven how quickly $25,000 can change hands. As the event heads toward its finale, the balance between chasing round money and protecting the average will determine who walks away with the largest checks of the week.

Refresher on Kimes Ranch Million Dollar Breakaway Payout

Josie Conner Is Chasing More Than Just Round Money

With $95,000 earned throughout six rounds, Conner has already separated herself by nearly double on the leaderboard. Three round wins (Rounds 3–5) and a No. 2 finish in Round 1 has put her in position to be the event’s top earner regardless of what happens in the average.

The catch—Conner has only five times in the average so far (10.02 on five, sitting No. 6). That keeps her in contention for a small slice of the average pie, but also means there’s less margin for error. Continuing with clean catches on night three will determine if—and how large—her average check will be.

Less Than 1 Second Separates Top Three in Average

Maddy Deerman-Jacobs currently leads the average at 13.82 on six, followed closely by Cheyanne McCartney (14.27 on six) and Aspen Miller (14.71 on six), and none of those margins are comfortable with four rounds remaining.

And while Deerman-Jacobs hasn’t won a round yet, but she’s caught a check multiple times and avoided a miss. That steadiness is exactly why she’s sitting on top of the average and already at $27,500 in round earnings.

McCartney is in a similar position: not flashy in the round payouts, but clean across six runs. And when the average pays a total of $175,000 out, a placing there can eclipse go-round winnings.

Mid-Pack but Clean on Six

Average players Suzanne Williams (15.06 on six sitting No. 4) and Kayse Mahoney (34.76 on six sitting No. 5) are farther back, but not out. With four rounds remaining, the math still works for an upwards climb or respectable check if they can stay clean.

Behind them, athletes with only five times recorded—like Conner, Shelby Boisjoli-Meged (11.20 on five), and Sarah Angelone (11.46 on five)—carry both upside and risk. Continuing with clean runs puts them on the periphery of average conversation, especially if those above them stub their toe.

Round Money Still Has Real Impact

There’s $25,000 on the table every round win through Round 10, meaning a rockstar performance could see $100,000 earned by a single roper before before the average is even settled.

For athletes hovering in the $20,000–$30,000 earnings range—Gentry Goza, Emilee Charlesworth, Beau Peterson—one round win instantly changes their week.

With four rounds left and $60,000 waiting at the top of the average, the biggest checks of the week are still unsettled. The numbers say this won’t be decided early—it’ll come down to who handles the last night with cool compusure
