Jessica Von Bredow-Werndl retains her Olympic crown. She wins 🥇 for 2nd consecutive Olympics in Individual Dressage. 
 

Another medal for Werth she wins 🥈 

 1-2 for :GER

Using Edith Piaf for her music was definitely pandering, though.  Schlager not good enough, eh?

The number of quotas awarded to equestrian events is just insane. You've got 74 jumpers WITH their horses whereas IOC says volleyball teams of 14 players would be definitely too much. Some other sports could claim the same - they are much more accessible (because of how much does it costs to maintain a horse!) and awarded relatively few olympic quotas. I believe the next big reform should be to reduce the number of equestrian quotas. And I am saying this from a country that qualified maximum quota of riders and would probably lose 80-90% of them in a more competitive qualification system.
