Henrik von Eckermann poised for success in Paris

After winning his first Olympic medal (team jumping) in Tokyo, Henrik von Eckermann of Sweden has continued to establish himself as a force in show jumping, winning an individual and team gold at the 2022 World Championships in Herning, individual gold at the 2023 FEI World Cup in Omaha and the team gold medal at the 2023 European Championships in Milano. 

Von Eckermann remains steadfast at the top of Longines Rankings, where he has been since July 2022. 

Isabell Werth's medal collection continues to grow

With 12 Olympic medals (seven of which are gold), 12 world championship medals, 27 European championship medals, and 14 World Cup medals, one has to wonder if there is still room on Isabell Werth's trophy shelves. Since Tokyo, the six-time Olympian helped the German team win silver at the 2023 European Championships and two bronze medals at the World Cups in 2022 and 2023. Werth has been as high as second in the FEI World Dressage Ranking so far in 2024 and will look to add to her medal collection in Paris.
