The PBR Global Cup was a bull riding team competition that was developed in 2017 by the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) organization and ran through 2022. It was intended to give the winning country the ability to say they had the best bull riders. Previously, there was a similar team event called the PBR World Cup that the PBR ran from 2007 to 2010, but this new event was not a continuation of the previous one. The PBR Global Cup consisted of teams from five countries including Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, and the United States.
A different country held the team event each year as this was an annual event. The host country retained a competitive advantage. The best riders in each team were matched against the best riders from other teams. The contest was a series that continued until one country held all five pieces of the Global Cup, which included the horn and the native soil of each nation. Only one country could claim the "Toughest Nation on Dirt."[1]
