Equestrian at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Team eventing

The team eventing in equestrian at the 2012 Olympic Games in London was held at Greenwich Park from 28 to 31 July.

Contents

The German team of Peter Thomsen, Dirk Schrade, Ingrid Klimke, Sandra Auffarth and Michael Jung won the gold medal. Great Britain won the silver medal and New Zealand took bronze.

Competition format

The team and individual eventing competitions used the same scores. Eventing consisted of a dressage test, a cross-country test, and a jumping test. The jumping test had two rounds, with only the first used for the team competition. Team eventing final scores were the sum of the three best overall individual scores (adding the three components) from the five-pair teams.
