Venue Greenwich Park Competitors 75 from 26 nations | Date 4–8 August | |
The individual jumping in equestrian at the 2012 Olympic Games in London was held at Greenwich Park from 4 to 8 August.
Contents
Five rounds of jumping were conducted, in two stages. The first three rounds made up the qualifications. The second and third rounds were also used for the team jumping event. Following the qualifications, the top 35 pairs moved on to the final round. Only the top 20 pairs advanced to the second of the two final rounds. Final rankings were based on the sum of scores from both rounds of the final stage. A jump-off would be held to break a tie for any of the medal positions.
