WHERE ELEGANCE MEETS ADRENALINE The Global Champions League is the equestrian series taking the sport to new heights By Leslie Threlkeld 32 NetJets
clearing fences S how jumping might have been inspired by the fox hunt—horses needed to jump hedges and fences in order to follow the hounds—but the sport has come a long way since those early days in the English countryside. Indeed, Olympic medals for show jumping have been given out continuously since 1912, making it one of the oldest events in the games, and in recent years the Global Champions League (GCL) has offered the sport’s elite an opportunity to showcase its dizzying mélange of tradition, athleticism, teamwork and training in some of the world’s most spectacular locales—all of which are a long way from the British countryside. Unlike many other Olympic sports, which maintain the country-centric classification in between the quadrennial events—show jumping at the highest level has become like international club football, where individual teams bring together athletes from different nations as a unit. The GCL piggybacks on the similarly named Longines Global Champions Tour (LGCT) schedule, which since 2006 has invited World and Olympic champions to compete for unprecedented prize money. A minimum of €300,000 is up for grabs at individual competitions, and the overall series classification allots €950,000 to the top 18 athletes. LGCT founder and President Jan Tops, an Olympic show jumping gold medallist himself, set out to develop a series that would raise the standards of competitive show jumping across the globe.
