The PBR's Copenhagen Bull Ridingsm Challenger Tour is comparable to baseball's minor league. It offers up-and-coming bull riders the opportunity to compete in PBR sanctioned events while earning money to qualify them for the elite Built Ford Tough Series.
Once the season begins, the World's top 45 bull riders have five Built Ford Tough
Series events at which they will compete to secure their positions. After the
fifth event, the bottom five riders ranked based on points, are dropped from
the Built Ford Tough Series. The top five Copenhagen Bull Ridingsm Challenger
Tour riders, based on Challenger, Enterprise and Discovery Tour money earned,
are then allowed to move into those five positions.
After this first cut, the elimination process then takes place after each fifth Built Ford Tough Series event. A rider that has been dropped from the BFTS must compete in the Challenger Tour, hopefully earning enough money to regain a BFTS roster position.
Worth an estimated $1.5 million in prize money, approximately 30 plus Copenhagen Bull Ridingsm Tour events are anticipated for the 2008 season.
