Julia Krajewski and Amande De d’Neville of Germany won the individual gold medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games \ Tomas Holcbecher
Germany’s Julia Krajewski made history at the Olympic Games in Tokyo on Monday when she became the first woman to win the individual eventing gold medal.
Leading the way into the top-25 medal-decider in Monday’s individual final, Krajewski only had 3.7 penalties in hand over Britain’s Tom McEwan in second place.
The 32-year-old kept her nerve under incredible pressure to produce a second clear round with her French-bred mare Amande De B’Neville (Oscar Des Fontaines x Elan De La Cour), just one second over the time to finish on a final score of 26.0 to clinch the title.
