Germany Takes First Equestrian Gold Medals
Hinrich Peter Romeike on Marius led the equestrian eventing going into the third phase–jumping–on Tuesday and never gave up that lead, completing the phase with no penalty points. His performance was good for the individual eventing Gold as well as to boost Team Germany to the team Gold Medal.
Australia earned the Silver Medal and Great Britain earned the Bronze team medal.
Individual Silver went to Gina Miles of the United States (pictured above); the individual Bronze Medal was awarded to Kristina Cook of Great Britain.
