Cole Melanin Tacoma 2022 Recap
Cole Melancon continues to rehabilitate his injury, with a renewed focus on the large hematoma that resulted from it. Dr. Freeman told him at an appointment this past week that he needs to wait / aim for a potential return to riding at the PBR World Finals mid-May. Cole has been given the go ahead to get on some practice bulls in the next couple of weeks in preparation for that return timeline. He hasn’t suffered any setbacks in his work outs which includes horse back riding. At this time, it’s not clear if Cole will be able to use his injury exemptions to qualify for the finals event. He has a call into the PBR competition committee to work through those logistics. Cole is currently 39th in the PBR world standings with 114.16 points.
