"'If' is a really big word, and you can’t live your life on that." – Sherry Cervi

Sherry Cervi has accomplished just about everything you can accomplish as a barrel racer: 19 WNFR qualifications, four world titles, and a lifetime of mastering the event she loves. Known as a "true cowgirl," Cervi is arguably one of the best horsewomen to ever hit the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

Cervi just missed the 2017 WNFR, finishing her rodeo season in the 16th spot.

Don't worry: she'll be back.
