Riders and fans around the world are eagerly anticipating one of the most stunning events on the showjumping calendar - the Global Champions Tour of Miami, followed by another leg in Mexico. Olivier and his horses H&M Legend of Love and Le Blue Diamond van 't Ruytershof are ready for two weeks of competition on the other side of the ocean. First stop: Miami.
As a participant in the Global Champions Tour of Miami, Olivier Philippaerts and his horses have been training hard to prepare for this season’s second leg. As usual, they will be competing against the best in the sport, and the competition will be fierce. H&M Legend of Love and Le Blue Diamond took off to Miami already last week, and they are settling in nicely, with the guidance and support of Olivier's great groom Coline. At the same time, their teammates of the Stockholm Hearts, Lillie Keenan, and Malin Baryard-Johnsson are also arriving with their horses.
We wish Olivier and his team the best of luck in this competition, and we look forward to following their progress as they compete against some of the best riders in the world. We'll follow up on their results and share them with you on our homepage and social media as usual.
After Miami, they continue to the Global Champions Tour of Mexico, where Olivier is expected to continue his streak. Olivier’s participation both individually and as a part of the Stockholm Hearts are critical in the Longines Global Champions Tour and League. The LGCT and GCL of Mexico takes of on April 20th.
