Daniel Green of Oakdale, California came into the fifth performance on Sunday with a 31-second lead on the "King of Rodeo" Trevor Brazile and a field of World Champions. Not only did Green win his second title and hold off the world's best cowboys, but shattered the arena record in the average set one-year ago by Brazile. Green posted a 276.1 over 25 head of livestock worth $57,000.00 and joined the elite fraternity of multiple-time world champions at the 24th Annual Wrangler Timed Event Championship this weekend at the Lazy E Arena.

Green had a stellar weekend and used consistent runs, great horses, and world class helpers to rise above his fellow nineteen competitors that made up one of the greatest fields of contestants ever assembled to compete for the prestigious " Iron-Man" title. Brazile, after winning his record fifth title last year, finished the event as the runner-up, recorded the fastest over-all go-round time, and placed again in the 5th round for an event total of $41,000.00 bringing Brazile's career WTEC earnings to $508,500.00. Keeping on the west coast, Los Alamos, California cowboy Casey Branquinho took home third place honors and earned $15,000.00.

Each round of competition featured excitement with the leaders changing after every run, with only seconds separating them. The champion wasn't determined until the last rope was thrown, the flag was dropped and the clock stopped. The Wrangler Timed Event Championship was developed by the Lazy E in 1985 to determine the best all-around timed event cowboy in the world the man who could stand out in more than his specialty event, the man who could be consistent in all five timed events. The majority of today's professional rodeo cowboys no longer compete in multiple events, but specialize in one, possibly two. This event attracted the biggest names in the rodeo industry that correlated into 38 World Championship titles, in addition to over 23,000 fans representing 48 states from across the country! Some of the cowboys that competed for the $150,000.00 purse include: eight-time NFR qualifier, Cash Myers; 2005 PRCA All Around World Champion, Ryan Jarrett; World Champion Steer Wrestler Luke Branquinho; veterans Jimmie Cooper and Paul Tierney; and new stars such as the 2007 PRCA Runner-Up World Champion All-Around, Josh Peek.
