    These results aren’t entirely correct. Only the team dressage medals have been awarded (and they were to Germany, Netherlands, and Denmark like you said). However, there are still two more rounds of individual dressage before the individual medals are decided. The top 25 scoring riders from the team round move ahead, and then the top individual riders start from scratch with scores. They ride a Grand Prix Special tomorrow, then the top 15 after that move on the Grand Prix Freestyle. The scores from these two rounds are averaged to determine the individual winner.

    Thank you Jackie and my apologies for posting the wrong stuff.
    The results are directly from the official site and should be current and correct.

    No bigee! Thanks for fixing it. I just didn’t want anybody to get confused–or to stop watching thinking it was over. It’s certainly a big job to cover the Olympics, but a whole lot of fun. I’ve been writing about it too and pouring over everything I can find. I had to re-reread the format/rules section on the official site about 5 times before I could make sense of it and turn it into usable information.

    Happy blogging (and riding)!
