For the first time ever, the world's leading show jumping teams competed beneath the magnificent Pyramids of Giza, as the GCL made its historic debut in Egypt. Founded by Qatar's Years of Culture initiative, An elated Max Weishaupt explained “We knew we had to perform well here, and to win this stage..."
"...and the overall championship, we couldn’t be happier. It’s just been the most unbelievable season!”
“This team is super special, and for me as a rider that isn’t as experienced as the others jumping at this level, to get into the team and getting nervous to ride with all these guys is just so great for me.”
Marco explained, “The atmosphere here is so special, and when i first heard there was the event in front of the Pyramids I put my name on the list right away! I have never been to Egypt, and really it proves it was a really good decision - it is just outstanding here.”
