Usually there are very few clear rounds. Perhaps a bit easier than usual, but nothing too easy. Especially in 2nd round when time was tight. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skelton probably cant run one km without getting an heartattack, he cant be considered an athlete and if someone like him can win a medal, than jumping and all other equestrian events are not a sport.

What? Please READ my comment before answering. It makes me really angry, you are wasting my time with your nonsense comments. I said that none equestrian event can be considered a sport and earlier i said that eventing shouldnt be an olympic discipline. Equestrian in general cant be considered a sport and therefore shouldnt be olympic, even formula 1 is more of a sport than equestrian. Its really a shame that there is no way to downvote comment. You are deliberately wasting my time by writing complete nonsense, next time i will report your comment.

Federer91 2,140 Posted August 19, 2016 #518 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Britain sinking it's teeth into that second place and not letting go. Hard to imagine that 20 years ago in Atlanta they had 1 gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
