The countdown to the most anticipated event of the year has begun. In just a few weeks, 15 riders will descend to the GC Playoffs in Riyadh for the ultimate clash of champions in the €1.25 million Longines Global Champions Super Grand Prix, the pinnacle of the 2024 season. This is where legends are made.
After a season of fierce competition across the globe, 15 riders have earned their place in this prestigious battle. Now, they stand on the precipice of greatness, each one determined to write their name into the history books and claim show jumping’s most coveted prize. With the stakes at an all-time high, the world will be watching as these elite athletes push themselves to the absolute limit around two 1.65m tracks.
Set against the stunning backdrop of Riyadh's Finacian District, this event will see the best of the best go head-to-head in an adrenaline-fueled showdown, where every second, every jump, and every stride will count. The pressure is immense, the atmosphere electric, and the competition fierce. There is no second chance—only one rider will emerge victorious.
