Unlike some other silver medals we won at the Pan American Games, I'm very happy about this one, which of course is our best result ever

Very good freestyle for Losos de Muniz. This could seal an Olympic quota.

 

Grimm has been close or better in the technical tests this week, but experience plays a big part in freestyles, so it has to be the Dominican with the upper hand here.

And we have an upset! Grimm secures an Olympic quota much to the delight of her support team.

Naima Moreira-Laliberte's freestyle was fun as always.

 

Not really a fan or solo violin/piano music, but her composition is top notch.

Fun fact about Naima - she is the daudghter of Guy Laliberté, the founder of Cirque du Soleil (and a famously bad poker player).

Should be gold.

Gold for Mendoza, very close silver for Oliva and bronze for Marek.

 

Individual quotas will be assigned to . Ecuador will be competing in dressage for the first time since Los Angeles 1984.

Great job João Victor, only our second individual medal in Dressage (and best result ever). Also surprising result from Renderson, who started competing this year and gets a 5th place here.
