In the ninth stop of the Global Champions Tour, Janne Friederike Meyer-Zimmermann rode to a fourth-place finish. The 43-year-old show jumper from Pinneberg, along with her horse Messi, delivered a faultless performance in the jump-off at the Grand Prix of Stockholm. However, they were too slow to secure the win.
The competition proved disappointing for Philipp Weishaupt from Riesenbeck, who finished in 31st place despite being the European Championship runner-up and having already been nominated for the Olympic Games with Zineday. He received 16 penalty points and was followed closely by Swedish world champion Henrik von Eckermann with 16 penalty points and his top horse King Edward.
Despite not participating in the Stockholm event, Max Kuhner from Starnberg is currently leading the rankings for the series, ahead of Danish rider Andreas Schou. The best German rider in the rankings is Christian Kukuk, who also did not participate in this event but is currently sitting in fourth place.
