Coulter also earned a critical 38 world points. Attempting to qualify for the first PBR World Finals of his career at season’s end, Coulter surged 21 positions in the rankings, climbing from No. 58 to No. 37.
Fernando Henrique Novais of Pereira Barreto, Brazil was second Saturday night, netting 27 world points and earning 86.5 points In round one. In the championship round, Novais was brought down in a heartbreaking 7.01 seconds by Game Day.
