Smooth Operator 2019 YETI World Champion Bull
By Kelly B. Robbins
Smooth Operator certainly lived up to his name during the PBR Unleash the Beast World Finals at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. He was a “Smooth Operator” as he went head-to-head with Chase Outlaw in the Championship Round, dispatching him in 4.11 seconds for a season high bull score of 47 points, and the 2019 PBR/Yeti World Champion Bull title. Smooth Operator is owned by reigning PBR Stock Contractor of the Year Chad Berger, who was just voted the Stock Contractor of the Year for a record ninth time for the 2019 season. Smooth Operator is co-owned by Clay Struve and Julie Rosen.
After that last out, Smooth Operator then “smoothly” strutted his stuff and took a couple of victory laps around the arena. “He never does that,” Chad exclaimed. “It’s like he knew he just won the championship!” A fitting end to an amazing season for this nine-year old champion bovine! Not only did he win the World Champion Bull title and a check for $100,000, he ended the regular season as the top ranked bull with a bonus of $25,000. He was also the Yeti Bull of the Finals for another $25,000. There is always excitement in the air at the PBR Unleash the Beast World Finals. Each year it seems the race for the PBR World Champion Bull Rider and the World Champion Bull
