Cody Johnson, hosted his third annual “Cody Johnson Championship Event,” presented by Tractor Supply, in Belton, Texas last week.
“It takes a really big team to organize all the events that take place during the week,” shared Cody. “I’m so proud of the heart and soul everyone brings to the table, which enables us to give back to important causes.”
“Cody Johnson has built something special with the COJO event, bringing the team roping community together to compete and give back,” said Heather Strohm, marketing director at Tractor Supply. “We’re honored to present the COJO Championship and celebrate the Champs for Charity Gala surpassing $2 million raised in just three years for causes that matter deeply to Cody and the communities we serve.”
Over the course of the six-day event, more than $2 million in cash and prizes was awarded. The COJO Championship also partnered with the Guy Fieri Foundation, the Ranching for Heroes Foundation, and Boot Campaign for the Champs for Charity Gala, raising more than $635,000 for the three nonprofits.
Cody showcased his roping skills throughout the 2026 COJO Championship Team Roping. In the Celebrity Pro-Am Team Roping Invitational, he teamed with 5x National Finals Rodeo Qualifier heeler Drew Trey Yates to finish third overall with a 21.87-second total on two heads, anchored by a 15.53-second run in the short round. Cody also made his mark in the 10.5 roping, where he and fellow Texan Bradley Jackson stopped the clock in 6.46 seconds, placing second in the Rotation fast-time standings. In the #12 roping, Cody and Justin Davis finished 19th in the average with a 23.50-second total, earning fourth place in the Incentive.
