Sage Steele Kimzey (born August 26, 1994) is an American professional rodeo cowboy who specializes in bull riding.

For most of his career, he competed in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA), winning seven bull riding world championships.

In 2023, he began riding for the Carolina Cowboys during the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) Team Series season.

His total NFR earnings of $175,466 was the highest of the event, giving him the Ram Truck Top Gun Award.

He was co-champion at the Horse Heaven Round-up Wranglers Champions Challenge in Kennewick, Washington; and the Wild Bill Hickok Rodeo in Abilene, Kansas.

Kimzey had now entered the record books winning three world titles in a row in his first three years as a card holder.

He won the Wild, Wild West ProRodeo in Silver City, New Mexico; the Red Desert Roundup in Rock Springs, Wyoming; the Wind River PRCA Rodeo Roundup in Riverton, Wyoming; and the Crossett Riding Club 68th Annual PRCA Rodeo in Crossett, Arkansas.

[10] In the CBR circuit, he won the Navajo Nation CBR in Window Rock, Arizona; the Championship Bull Riding Battle on the Great Plains in Enid, Oklahoma; and the Casa Ford Tuff Hedeman Championship Bull Riding Presented by Sunland Park Racetrack and Casino in El Paso, Texas.

He successfully rode all four of his bulls and won the event; solidifying himself a spot at the PBR World Finals as a wild-card qualifier on November 1-5, also in Las Vegas.

[14] He again won the bull-riding event in Bossier City, Louisiana; only now it was sanctioned by the newly-formed Tuff Hedeman Bull Riding Tour.

He won the Kitsap Stampede Xtreme Bulls in Bremerton, Washington; and the Tri-State Rodeo Cinch Shoot-Out in Fort Madison, Iowa.

Campbell remained determined and Wright was holding second in the all-around race and adding more money to his bull riding total.

[1] On July 9, Sage Kimzey and Parker McCown split the win at the Dinosaur Roundup Rodeo in Vernal, Utah.

He was matched up against Sankey Pro Rodeo and Phenom Genetics' bull Lil Man as the next to last ride of the night.

"[24] Kimzey won the Cactus Jack Xtreme Bull Riding in Uvalde, Texas; the Ropin Dreams Xtreme Bulls in Pleasanton, Texas; the Durant, Oklahoma Pro Rodeo; the Pioneer Days rodeo in Ogden, Utah; Kansas' Biggest Rodeo in Phillipsburg, Kansas; the Hells A Roarin Xtreme Bulls & Broncs Riding in Gardiner, Montana; and the Yellowstone River Round-Up in Billings, Montana.

Even though he had finished inside the top 15 money-winning bull riders after the PRCA regular season had concluded, he was unable to compete at the NFR due to his post-surgery recovery timetable not allowing it.

Kimzey was a color commentator during the first few events of the 2023 PBR Unleash the Beast Series season while still recovering from surgery.

[36] At the PBR Team Series Championship, which was held on October 22-24 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, the Carolina Cowboys were eliminated after the first day of competition.

[37] On the weekend of November 10-11, 2023, Kimzey made his PBR Premier Series regular-season debut at the first event of the 2024 Unleash the Beast (UTB) season in Tucson, Arizona, where he finished tied for second with João Ricardo Vieira.

[38] On the weekend of December 2-3, 2023, at the second event of the 2024 UTB season in St. Louis, Missouri, Kimzey finished sixth.

[39] Kimzey announced that following the 2023 NFR, he would now ride full-time in the PBR; reasoning that he wished to travel less to be able to spend more time with his family.

In February 2024, Kimzey announced that he would miss the next three to four months of competition due to an elbow injury that required surgery.

However, he decided to make his return to competition the week of April 5-7, during the 19th event of the UTB regular season in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where he finished seventh.

[40] On the week of April 20-21, at the 22nd UTB regular season event in Tacoma, Washington, Kimzey finished second; highlighted by a 91.5 point ride on Utz BesTex Legend in the Championship Round.

On the weekend of May 9-12, at the World Finals Elimination Rounds in Fort Worth, Texas, he rode his last bull and finished the event in 11th place.

Also, Kimzey became the fourth bull rider to win both finals averages in the PRCA and the PBR after Ted Nuce, Ty Murray, and L.J.

As a result, both them and regular-season champions, the Kansas City Outlaws, received a first-round bye and automatically qualified for the second day of the Team Series Championship.

[46] The week of December 7-8, 2024, during the third event of the 2025 UTB season in St. Louis, Missouri, Kimzey won Round 1 with 89.75 points on Mike's Motive.

[48] The week of December 13-14, 2024, during the fourth event of the 2025 UTB season in Wichita, Kansas, Kimzey was bucked off in the first round.
