Bull riding is not a sport that comes to mind when people consider a professional career. Despite all odds, Jess Lockwood has established himself as a young but famous bull rider.
Jess Lockwood, 20, was born on September 28, 1997 in Volborg, Montana. Lockwood chose bull riding as a profession because his parents were also involved in similar sports. Ed, his father, is a former Helldorado saddle bronc champion, and Angie, his mother, is a barrel racer. Lisa Lockhart, his aunt, is an eight-time NFR qualifying barrel racer.
Jess, who hails from a small town in Montana, carries the sporting nature of his family and has big ambitions to dominate the bull riding realm. And, despite his young age, he has already won the 2017 PBR World Champion Crown and made his family proud by following his dreams and passion for work.
Jess Lockwood: Net Worth and Career
Jess’ net worth comes from his bull riding career, and he stands at a tall 5 feet 5 inches (1.65m). The 20-year-old cowboy earns $117,000 for 32 seconds of work, according to business insider.
In addition to the money earned during the regular season and the World Finals, the PBR world champion received $1 million. Jess Lockwood earned a total of $1,525,292 in 2017.
Jess is an accomplished wrestler in addition to being a two-time Northern Rodeo Association bull riding champion. In 2013, he won the Montana state wrestling championship at 98 pounds in class B-C.
Relationship Status: Single?
The professional bull rider is officially off the market because he is in a romantic relationship with his beautiful girlfriend, Hailey Kinsel. According to wiki, Hailey is an equestrian and a rodeo rider.
The couple got together at some point in 2018. Jess was previously reported to be single. He even boasted about his single status in a 2015 tweet, revealing that he was not seeing any girls at the time.
He has now found the love of his life in a person who works in the same industry as him. There is no doubt that they understand each other on a deeper level.
Jess first shared a photo with Hailey on March 21, 2018, in which the couple was seen enjoying their time together at AT&T Centre.
Similarly, just a day after National Girlfriend Day on August 3, 2018, Jess shared a cozy photo with his girlfriend. He wished his girlfriend a happy National Girlfriend Day and referred to her as the “special person” in his life in his caption. He also thanked her for sticking by him through his ups and downs.
Based on the post he shared, it appears that Jess is in a happy relationship with his girlfriend. However, only time will tell if Hailey is the one Jess will marry.
He is reportedly unmarried as of August 2018.
